Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is dedicated to highlighting the most recent developments in the field of domino reactions in organic synthesis. The charm of domino reactions is the overcoming of the long and multistep synthesis routes to reach products with high chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity (e.g., natural products).
Domino reactions yield the production of a large number of molecules in a single step and may serve for the development of compound libraries in drug discovery and chemical biology research. In most cases, these synthetic strategies meet more recent and non-standard procedures, including microwave irradiation, solid-phase synthesis, alternative reaction media, and the use of fluorescent reagents.
The aim of this Special Issue is to attract organic synthetic chemists, along with medicinal chemists and biologists, to showcase the advances and relative applications in the realizable production of complex molecules thanks to cascade synthesis and domino reactions, as well as provide answers to the challenges of modern organic chemistry.

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. Molecules is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2700 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.
