Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Inorganic Chemistry is one of the most popular and fastest growing, interdisciplinary research fields of Chemistry, which is served by an appreciable number of faculty members and Research Directors in Universities and Research Institutes. The research interests of the Inorganic Chemistry community span the areas of synthetic inorganic chemistry (coordination clusters, polymers and MOFs), structural chemistry, materials science, spectroscopic, physicochemical and theoretical characterization, molecule-based magnetism, luminescence, catalysis, conductivity, bioinorganic and medicinal inorganic chemistry, and photochemistry, to name a few.

The present Special Issue is a compilation of novel, cutting-edge achievements in the most interesting areas of modern inorganic chemistry, which are as follows:

  • Single-molecule magnets, MOFs;
  • Spin crossover;
  • Multifunctional magnetic materials;
  • Magnetocaloric effect;
  • Crystal structure;
  • Structure−property relationships;
  • Magnetic relaxation;
  • Magnetic materials;
  • Prussian blue analogues and photomagnetism;
  • Inorganic heterostructures ;
  • Luminescence thermometers;
  • Inorganic dyes;
  • Bio-inorganic compounds;
  • Inorganic materials in catalysis;
  • Inorganic materials for supercapacitors.

This Special Issue will contain the most recent results obtained in research laboratories of prominent inorganic chemists from Europe working in the described broad area of inorganic chemistry. As such, this Special Issue will be interesting to other chemists working in this field and beyond—all those who further advance science and human knowledge.

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. 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.

Abstract
An unusual series of germylenes and stannylenes stabilized by new tetradentate bis(amidine) ligands RNC(R′)N-linker-NC(R′)NR with a rigid naphthalene backbone has been prepared by protonolysis reaction of Lappert’s metallylenes [M(HMDS)2] (M = Ge or Sn). Germylenes and stannylenes were fully characterized by [...] Read more.
An unusual series of germylenes and stannylenes stabilized by new tetradentate bis(amidine) ligands RNC(R′)N-linker-NC(R′)NR with a rigid naphthalene backbone has been prepared by protonolysis reaction of Lappert’s metallylenes [M(HMDS)2] (M = Ge or Sn). Germylenes and stannylenes were fully characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. DFT calculations have been performed to clarify the structural and electronic properties associated with tetradentate bis(amidine) ligands. Stannylene L1Sn shows reactivity through oxidation, oxidative addition, and transmetalation reactions, affording the corresponding gallium and aluminum derivatives. Full article
