Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Macrocycles are suitable building blocks with applications in supramolecular chemistry. The range of old and new macrocycles have found applications in many section of the chemical sciences such as in soft materials, drug delivery agents, sensors etc. This prompted us to highlight this exciting new chemistry in a thematic issue Symmetry on Recent Advances in Structural and Synthetic Supramolecular Systems
In this Special Issue of Symmetry, manuscripts that report exciting new research on all kinds of macrocycles that have been the pillars in supramolecular chemistry, are also very welcome.
Potential topics for manuscripts include but are not limited to:
- Synthesis and characterization of new macrocycles;
- Host-guest chemistry, dynamics of guest exchange;
- Applications of macrocycles;
- Symmetry in supramolecular assemblies.

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.
