Design and Development of New Organic Synthetic Methods and Techniques

Dear Colleagues,

The continuous development of new organic synthetic methods and techniques is of great importance in medicinal chemistry and drug discovery, material sciences, agriculture sciences, etc. As a result, tremendous efforts have been made regarding both novel synthetic method development and new synthetic technique exploration. In the past several decades, a great number of novel synthetic areas have been explored, such as organocatalysis, photoredox catalysis, and electrocatalysis. Meanwhile, new synthetic techniques and instruments have also been developed, such as flow chemistry and flow reactors, microwave-assisted reactions and associated reactors, photoreactions and photoreactors, and electroreactions and electroreactors. Some of these new synthetic methods and techniques have already been utilized in industrial settings. This Special Issue aims to publish the latest research results dedicated to all aspects of new discoveries of organic synthetic methods and techniques, including, but not limited to, the discovery of new chemical transformations, catalyst development, technique development, etc.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Organics is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1000 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
