Dear Colleagues,

The development of efficient strategies for selective molecular syntheses is of significance for biomolecular chemistry and material sciences, as well as chemical industries. In recent years, organic electrosynthesis has undergone a considerable renaissance and emerged as an attractive strategy for sustainable molecular assembly. In contrast to the conventional chemical process, organic electrosynthesis strategies usually use electrochemistry as a traceless redox reagent to replace a stoichiometric amount of redox reagents, thus reducing the production of chemical wastes. This Special Issue aims to illustrate recent advances in electrochemical organic molecular assembly. Particularly, the unique potential of organic electrosynthesis for sustainable molecular synthesis, selectivities, and novel mechanisms of organic molecular assembly will be emphasized.

All article research submissions should involve research at the molecular level as well as well-found verified experiments.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
