Women in Organic Synthesis

Dear Colleagues,

To celebrate the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, 11 February, and International Women’s Day, 8 March, our journal Molecules will launch a Special Issue on “Women in Organic Synthesis”, which is to be published in 2022. Gender equality is an opportunity to release untapped creativity and a tool for supporting inclusive research and promoting innovation and sustainability in science and in society, in general.

This Special Issue will include high-quality papers and review articles in Synthetic Organic Chemistry. We encourage all research groups to contribute with original research papers or up-to-date, comprehensive reviews, highlighting recent developments in this area with a main focus on sustainable synthetic methods, asymmetric synthesis, molecular diversity, and bioactive molecules.
