Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Transition metal catalysis plays a very important role in synthetic chemistry. Synthetic methods based on transition metal catalysis can effectively regulate the chemoselectivity, regioselectivity, or enantioselectivity of many organic reactions, providing guarantees for efficient conversion between different molecules.
This Special Issue will focus on organic synthesis reactions catalyzed by transition metals. We invite you to submit your latest research achievements in this field to this Special Issue of our journal.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
(1) Transition metal-catalyzed organic reactions;
(2) Organic reactions based on small molecules or polymerization;
(3) Design and synthesis of organometallic complexes.
I look forward to receiving your contributions.
Prof. Dr. Chengwei Liu
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. Catalysts 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 2200 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.
