I think JACS is better than Angew. Chem. Although the latter has a little higher impact factor(8.X) than JACS. Because JACS does not publish any review. All the reviews belongs to JACS catagory are published on Chemical Reviews and Accounts of chemical research. I like JACS more.
I think JACS is more pure chemistry oriented now. A lot of nano tech and materials papers are diversed to Nano Letters or Advanced Materials. JACS communcation is quite hard to get accepted either. 3 reviews for communication, if 1 major, 1 minor.. you will be rejected.
