Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Dearomatization has become a challenging research topic in modern synthetic organic chemistry as well as one of the most powerful methods for the conversion of simple aromatic substrates into diverse structurally complex systems. This approach delivers more concise synthetic routes to target molecules due to a considerable increase in complexity at the dearomatization step. This appears very useful, in particular, for the total synthesis of natural products as well as pharmaceutically oriented hybrid compounds.
In this Special Issue, original research papers and high-quality reviews on the application of the dearomatization approach are welcome. This Special Issue will focus on research advances and developments in dearomatization strategies toward various condensed, spiroconjugated carbo- and heterocyclic skeletons made directly from simple and readily available (hetero)aromatics.

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.
