Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is my great pleasure and honor to ask for your contribution to a Special Issue on Recent Advances in Carbon-Sulfur Bond Formation.
Although often associated with a foul odor, sulfur-containing organic molecules play an important role in biology and chemistry. Organosulfur compounds are versatile building blocks in organic synthesis and frequently used as agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, or advanced materials. In biological systems, the presence of sulfur atoms is essential for the structure and activity of various proteins. Due to the outstanding importance of organosulfur compounds, there is a sustained interest in the development of novel, more efficient methods for the construction of carbon–sulfur bonds.
The principal goal of this Special Issue is to provide the scientific community with an overview of recent advances in the field of carbon–sulfur bond forming reactions. I cordially invite researchers working in this field to join this Issue and submit original research articles, short communications, and review articles.
Dr. Georg Manolikakes
Guest Editor
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. Molecules is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
