I recently submitted a research paper to Wiley on applied organometallic chemistry. Since it is not stated on the website, I am unsure of the minimum time frame for the initial decision or review.
Here's an email address to Wiley's Editorial Office for submission and peer review support. They should be able to give you an answer. [email protected].
Elsevier is the big publisher behind Wiley. Here's a link to Elsevier that might help you get an answer to your question. You can put in the name of the journal to which you have submitted.

As all publishers say, there are many variables that influence publication time, like how fast the reviewers send in their reviews and the number of corrections that need to be made based on the comments by the reviewers. Online publications are faster.
In the article below, the authors state the average time span from submission to publication varies from 91 to 639 days. They also have some suggestions about what authors can do to improve the speed of the publication date.
Andersen MZ, Fonnes S, Rosenberg J. Time from submission to publication varied widely for biomedical journals: a systematic review. Curr Med Res Opin. 2021 Jun;37(6):985-993. doi: 10.1080/03007995.2021.1905622. Epub 2021 Apr 6. PMID: 33735591.
Good luck.
