The author has analyzed firstly the condition of chemistry in Russia up to 1850's and secondly the content and the editors' career of the first Russian scholarly journal devoted to chemistry and has show its historical role in the formation of the Russian chemical community. The Journal was published from 1859 to 1860 as a separate issue of the chemical section of the Mining Journal for the mining department of Russian government. The mining was the traditional area, where Russian chemists worked and the department's Journal had been issued since 1825. At the beginning of 1859 the department asked two active young Russian chemists, N. Sokolov (1826-77) and A. Engelhardt (1832-93) to become editors of the chemical section of its Joural to promote chemistry in Russia. During the two-year existence their Chemical Journal published 328 summaries of research papers in the European chemical literature and more than 30 orginal papers of 16 Russian chemists, including the editors, 9 of whom had worked in the editors' chemical laboratory. More than half of summaries and papers were devoted to organic chemistry, the hottest area in the chemical research at that time. Such a tendency of the Journal conflicted with the intention of the department , which preferred to emphasize inorganic and analytical chemistry. And this is the main reason why Sokolov and Engelhardt lost the editorship. The publication of their Journal is the clear indication of the emergence of the new generation of chemists in Russia, who were eager to engage in original laboratory research work and pursue a trend in chemistry in Europe and who shared the theoretical point of view promulgated in the Journal, especially that of Laurent and Gerhardt. This is an important step towards the formal manifestation of the formation of a chemical community in Russia, namely the Russian Chemical Society in 1868.
