Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
For the last few decades, soluble ruthenium catalysts have been extensively utilized for a variety of organic coupling reactions, ranging from olefin metathesis to carbonylation and oxidation reactions, just to name a few. These ruthenium catalysts have shown to display exceptionally high activity and selectivity as well as functional group tolerance, the traits of which have been amply exploited in the synthesis of numerous complex organic molecules. Although a number of comprehensive reviews and monographs have been published over the years, another timely anthology is necessary to highlight the recent advances on this continuously expanding field of ruthenium catalysis. The current special issue aims to compile original articles on the coupling and related reactions that are mediated by soluble ruthenium catalysts. It is my hope that the current Special Issue would, not only provide the frontier knowledge but also inspire the future discoveries to the readers and researchers in the field of ruthenium catalysis.

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. Inorganics 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 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.
