Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The significance of phenolic compounds as ligands is derived from their capacity to donate electrons through the hydroxyl group, form chelate complexes, stabilize disparate metal oxidation states, and participate in biological and catalytic processes. Their adaptable binding modes and chemical reactivity render them highly valuable in inorganic, bioinorganic, and analytical chemistry. Phenolic-based complexes are of significance in a variety of fields, including medicine, the food industry, catalysis, green chemistry, water treatment, soil remediation, environmental analysis, material science, drug delivery, nanomaterials, energy storage, and more.
The objective of this Special Issue is to provide a forum for the dissemination of research findings pertaining to complexes based on phenolic compounds. We invite interested parties to submit manuscripts for consideration. Contributions may take the form of full papers, briefs, or reviews.
Dr. Kiril B. Gavazov

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.
