unethical or unprofessional or plain inappropriate
Is it inappropriate to tell the professor that i have a publication offer from a journal for my work which I have turned in for his course, assuming that he has not turned in the grades or the grades have not come out? (and assuming that I really do have an offer?)

This is not even close to a legal employment issue.
I'm assuming OP would rather I lock their thread than out them. They can repost in the forum for law students if they want.
