Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Organofluorinated compounds represent a major class of organic compounds as molecules bearing fluorinated moieties exhibit unique properties. As a result, such fluorinated products have become essential in a wide range of applications, from life sciences (pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals) to materials. In this context, there is a need to design new efficient synthetic routes to prepare organofluorinated compounds, or to design and synthesize new structures to achieve desired properties relating to the considered field.
This Special Issue in Molecules thus aims to highlight recent developments centered around access to fluorinated building blocks via the incorporation or transformation of fluorinated moieties into molecules, as well as the transformation of fluorinated molecules into more sophisticated scaffolds. We hope that the contributions in this Special Issue will provide useful data to the scientific community.
We thus kindly invite you to submit papers, original research articles, or reviews to this Special Issue of Molecules, titled “Fluorinated Compounds: Access to Building Blocks and their Transformation”.
Dr. Fabien Toulgoat

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.
