Marine Organohalides

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue will encompass research pertaining to halogenated marine natural products, their biosynthesis, total synthesis, biological and pharmacological profiles, and halogen bonding to receptors. Articles submitted may be full research papers or reviews covering the past five years (2010–2015). Full research papers claiming to have ascertained molecular structures of natural products or intermediates and final products in the total synthesis of natural products must at a minimum provide IR spectra, proton and carbon NMR spectra, and HRMS as supporting data; HMBC and NOESY specta may be required for compounds of sufficient stereochemical complexity. Syntheses must also contain as supplement detailed, experimental procedures, including isolated yields.

Prof. Dr. Miguel O. Mitchell
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 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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Marine Drugs is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
