Research on the Synthesis and Functionalization of Supramolecular Complexes

Dear Colleagues,

Supramolecular chemistry and self-assembly have long been recognized as major pillars in understanding the organization of chemical and biological components that are beyond molecules. The development of supramolecular polymers over the last few decades has largely gone hand-in-hand with progress relating to the synthesis and characterization of new efficient and stimuli-responsive supramolecular building blocks. Supramolecular complexes have a range of applications, which concern advanced materials, medicine, and catalysis. In this Special Issue, we invite submissions focusing on new developments relating to the synthesis, self-assembly, and function of supramolecular complexes.

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-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.
