Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Centro de Química Estrutural (CQE) is one of the oldest chemical research units in Portugal. Ranked as Excellent, it integrates the Institute for Molecular Sciences, a recently created Associated Laboratory. Its multi- and interdisciplinary research is organized around four Thematic Lines, linked to major societal challenges: (1) Synthesis, Catalysis and Reactivity; (2) Materials, Soft Matter and NanoChemistry; (3) Sustainable Chemistry for the Environment, Energy, and Manufacturing; (4) Medicinal and Biological Chemistry for Health.
This Special Issue will cover the research performed at Centro de Química Estrutural (CQE) mostly during the 4th edition of the CQE Days meeting, with the intent of sharing the most recent research findings. The list of topics is not confined to those presented in the meeting, and manuscripts discussing advances in methodologies and effects on chemical or biological processes, including experimental, computational, and/or simulation studies are welcomed. Synthesis, catalysis, materials, nanochemistry, chemistry for the environment, energy, and medicinal and biological studies are topics of interest to this issue.

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.
