Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The need for clean and renewable energy sources is one of the driving forces for developing transition metal complex chemistry. Studies on the design, structures, and catalytic mechanisms of new transition metal complexes as catalysts in energy applications are essential for advancing coordination chemistry and exploring new catalysts. In recent years, there has been significant progress in transition metal complex-based catalysts for energy-related reactions such as light-driven carbon dioxide reductions and catalytic water splitting. One can design and tailor the molecular structures of metal complexes to target certain desired functionality.

This Special Issue covers the most recent advances in the catalytic and energy applications of transition metal complexes by presenting a mix of original research articles and short critical reviews.

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. Inorganics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2700 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.
