Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is entitled “Novel Organic Synthesis and Synthetic Methods”. The development of new synthetic methods and methodologies is one of the key features of modern organic synthesis. Novel and stereoselective ways of C–C and C–heteroatom bond-forming reactions are of considerable importance when the selected type of bond needs to be made within the targeted molecule. The criteria of such bond-forming reaction, however, can vary tremendously. The demands placed on individual transformations will vary according to the purpose for which they are intended to be used. Indeed, a medicinal chemist will require different types of transformation with regard to chemical yields, chemoselectivity, or atom efficiency, when compared to a process chemist or a Ph.D. student that carries out total synthesis in the academic environment. This means that no developed synthetic methodology is better or worse, only more or less suitable for its purpose. This Special Issue will cover novel synthetic methods and methodologies developed as new ways to synthesize defined classes of substances. However, all included methods and methodologies should be evaluated in terms of their scope and limitations.

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.
