Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The research focus of modern organic synthesis has been rapidly changing in recent years. Today, the integration of green chemistry principles and PASE (pot, atom, and step economy) approaches is a key trend in molecular design. In this context, the development of "building blocks" that enable the efficient synthesis of functionalized molecules is essential. Due to the combination of two or three reactive centers, the condensation of such systems can easily form both aliphatic and heterocyclic derivatives, including fluorinated derivatives. In terms of PASE, the desired formation of C-C, C-N, and C-O bonds proceeds under metal or metal-free C-H functionalization, organocatalysis, and electrochemical or photoredox reactions.
This Special Issue aims to familiarize readers with the most modern trends and achievements in the field of organic chemistry. We strongly encourage authors to submit original research articles, review papers, and short communications covering the last two decades of research innovations in organic synthesis. We especially welcome research describing the application of both metal catalysis and organocatalysis in the synthesis and functionalization of heterocyclic compounds for medicinal chemistry and the development of functional materials. We warmly invite studies concerning the development and application of polyfunctional molecules that represent convenient "building blocks" for the synthesis of various classes of organic substances.

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. Organics is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.
