Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Considerable research attention has been focused on compounds and materials originating from transition metals (TMs), ranging from 0D molecular organo-transition metal compounds, TM complexes, clusters and quantum dots of TMs and related compounds, etc. to their composites and assemblies in condensed phases, including metal organic frameworks, various TM oxides, nitrides, carbides, etc., for their outstanding performance in energy harvesting, storage and conversion, chemical transformation, environment preservation, disease diagnosis and therapy, etc., that are of both fundamental and industrial significance. Though numerous breakthroughs are being achieved, there are still many challenges to be addressed.

This Special Issue of the journal Molecules is thus devoted to highlighting recent advances and breakthroughs in field of TM chemistry, going from molecular science to materials and their vast applications in science and technology. This Special Issue welcomes reviews as well as research articles, not only on experimental synthesis, characterization, and applications of TM-related compounds in all fields of chemistry and chemical engineering, but also parallel theoretical investigations concerning electronic structure, thermodynamics, microscopic mechanisms, etc., to address the physical origin for the outstanding performance of these TM-related compounds.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at mdpi.longhoe.net 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.
