Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The XIX century revealed the nitro group to the world. It was shown that its introduction into molecules turned ordinary cellulose into a highly effective propellant and harmless glycerin into one of the most famous energetic compounds and medicaments. Nitro dyes are well-known deeply colored substances, which have found wide industrial application. The XX century has become known as the time of unlocking the potential of the nitro group in different aspects, which has resulted in the appearance of new energetic materials, pharmaceutical drugs, antibiotics, anticorrosive materials, etc. The chemistry of nitro compounds remains one of the most active growing fields of organic chemistry at the present time, due to the diverse properties of the nitro group’s functionality, which provides nitro compounds with important roles as intermediates in organic synthesis. This Special Issue comprises a collection of original research and review articles that deal with the synthesis, chemistry, and applications of nitro-derivatives.

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.
