10th Anniversary of Inorganics: Organometallic Chemistry

Dear Colleagues,

Organometallic chemistry has become an impactful area of chemistry and is employed in many areas of chemistry. Organometallic chemistry is now as vibrant and exciting as ever, with research impacting photo-, electro-, and thermal catalysis, main-group chemistry, chemical biology, lanthanides and actinides, organic synthesis, and materials science. For instance, luminescent organometallic compounds are broadly used to produce electroluminescent devices, fluorescent sensors, and labels for the visualization of biological structures and processes and in oxygen mapping and generation of singlet oxygen, drug delivery tracking, sensing of different ions in the solution, and sensing of small molecules. There is no limit to the applications of organometallic chemistry. Organometallic chemistry is involved in constructing cage compounds, coordination polymers, MOFs, supramolecular systems, nanostructured materials, nanotechnology, molecular magnets, and many more.

Hence, this Special Issue, celebrating the 10^th Anniversary of Inorganics intends to bring the role of organometallic chemistry and related applications into the spotlight, thus allowing readers to appreciate organometallic chemistry as a paramount area of chemical sciences that is intertwined with many other fields ranging from industrial to medical applications to nanotechnology. This Special Issue offers the unique opportunity for exchange between scientists and researchers in organometallic chemistry in mostly chemistry (inorganic and organic), (bio)medicinal chemistry, polymer chemistry, metallocene, industrial chemistry, catalysis, material, and nanotech fields. Communications, original research and comprehensive review papers, and perspectives contributing to the field are welcome.

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. 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 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.
