Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Heterocyclic compounds play an important role in drug discovery and drug design. Innovative advances in heterocyclic syntheses help speed up the drug discovery program. The application of heterocycles offers a useful approach for modifying the pharmacological activities of biologically active compounds to optimize the performance of drugs. As medicinal chemistry is a subject that uses chemical concepts and methods to discover, confirm and develop drugs, and study the way and mechanism of their modes of action at the molecular level, this Special Issue will focus on the latest innovations related to heterocycles, especially the research progress in synthesis and application of heterocycles in medicinal chemistry.
Considering your contribution to this interesting research field, I would like to invite you to submit an article to this Special Issue. Full research papers, communications, and review articles are welcome.
Prof. Dr. Jiong Zhou
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. 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.
