Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
“Chemistry and Symmetry/Asymmetry: Feature Papers 2023” is a Special Issue encompassing a broad range of topics in symmetry or asymmetry in chemistry. All kinds of symmetry-related problems in chemistry may be the subject of papers submitted to Symmetry. One of the most relevant fields includes optical activity that is the consequence of a kind of chirality center. New transition metal complex catalysts comprising optically active ligands, and the asymmetric reactions that they allow, are also of interest. Thus, all researchers are invited to contribute submissions focused on, but not limited to, the following necessary and emergent research topics in related areas: asymmetric syntheses; chiral catalysts and chiral P-ligands; X-ray structures; crystal structures; dynamic kinetic resolution; biocatalysts; molecular clusters; theoretical calculations on enantioselective reactions; quantum chemistry; coordination chemistry; and transition metal complexes.
Prof. Dr. György Keglevich
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. Symmetry is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
