Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nowadays, it is difficult to find a naturalist without a particular love for one, or several, beloved, special molecule(s). For me, this role is filled by benzene in all its grandeur and beauty, encompassing molecular crystals, aromatic hydrocarbons, fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, graphene molecules, and amorphous carbon. The benzene family continues to amaze and delight in many ways, with new special molecules or varieties continually emerging. The current Special Issue invites, first of all, scientists for whom the benzene family holds particular significance. The Editorial Board of IJMS also invites any papers or review articles detailing the latest achievements with regard to their special molecules. The physics and chemistry of real molecules, related breakthroughs in modern technologies, virtual models, and new ideas are all welcome topics.

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.
