Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The "green transformation" we are witnessing impacts every aspect of life and poses increasingly difficult challenges in the field of chemical synthesis, including organophosphorus compound preparation. New solutions and ideas are desirable that are characterized not only by greater efficiency but, above all, by care for environmental protection and the principles of sustainable development. In this context, optimization of synthesis conditions (e.g., reducing energy costs and reagent consumption, etc.), using eco-friendly solvents (e.g., ILs, NADES, and DES), and reusable reagents (e.g., solid-supported catalysts, and smart reagents) are crucial. Microwave or ultrasound assistance and organic electrosynthesis, as well as synthesis under high-pressure conditions or mechanochemistry, became powerful tools for conducting reactions in a modern and environmentally friendly way.
It is my great pleasure to invite experts in the field of organophosphorus chemistry to submit manuscripts in the form of short communications, full-length papers, and reviews to this Special Issue. I would like to extend a special invitation to young scientists to present their ideas and fresh approaches to the issues related to phosphorus chemistry.

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.
