Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue will focus on modern techniques of organic synthesis using UV and visible light sources. These include flow chemistry, photocatalysis, and the intervention of reactive intermediates in synthesis (e.g., carbon-centered free radicals, carbenes, and carbanions). The field of photocatalysis in the context of electron transfer and the development of photocatalysts will also be included. Photochemical synthesis in restricted environments such as solid matrices, zeolites, and other molecular cages will be examined.

Prof. Dr. Edward Lee-Ruff
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. Organics is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.
