Recent Advances in Catalytic Synthesis and Application of Heterocyclic and Heteroatom Compounds

Dear Colleagues,

The chemistry of heterocyclic and heteroatom compounds is a vast and important area of research. These compounds have attracted considerable attention due to their various valuable properties and diverse biological activities. Many of these compounds are useful ligands for transition metal catalysts, which play a huge role in modern organic synthesis.

The Special Issue will focus on the recent advances in catalytic synthesis and application of heterocyclic and heteroatom compounds. Original research articles and reviews describing advanced catalytic approaches and innovative methodologies are especially welcome. Contributions may cover all aspects of design, catalytic synthesis, and application of organic heteroatom and heterocyclic compounds. Particular attention will be paid to the synthesis of new efficient catalysts and compounds that mimic the catalytic functions of enzymes, including glutathione peroxidase.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
