Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to present a Special Issue entitled "Design, Synthesis and Characterization of Ligands and Corresponding Metal Complexes". We believe that this Issue will be of interest to the experts in the field of the design and study of molecules capable of forming complexes with metal atoms, as well as those who engage in the synthesis and investigations of these complexes.
Research interest in such structures is due to various reasons: (1) the structural diversity of possible combinations of different ligands and metal centers, (2) the synergism of properties of the ligand fragment and the complexing metal, and (3) the prospects for practical applications of such complexes, such as catalysts (or fragments of catalysts), pharmaceuticals, model compounds, corrosion inhibitors, etc.
This Special Issue of Processes provides an opportunity to present the results related to the study of molecules with potential ligand parameters and the corresponding metal complexes. We aim to monitor new advances in the Design, Synthesis and Characterization of Ligands and Corresponding Metal Complexes.
We welcome any studies related to the development, creation and research of new diversified ligands, as well as ligands derived from natural compounds (polysaccharides, amino acids, etc.), including modified ones, and the methods for the design and study of metal complexes with different ligands.
We will also consider contributions focused on the creation of original concepts for the directed synthesis of ligands containing several simultaneous potential coordination centers, which have different natures and properties with respect to the complexing metal. This will allow us to significantly expand the variability of new catalytic systems, study the effect of the ligand structure on the selectivity and performance of catalysts, and create new potential systems with pronounced high-luminescent properties.

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. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
