Call for papers: Special Issue on "Baylis-Hillman Reaction and Related Processes"
(http://www.mdpi.org/molecules/specialissues/baylis-hillman.htm)

Dear Colleagues,
 

We would like to invite you to contribute a paper for publication in the Special

Issue on ˇ°Baylis-Hillman Reaction and Related Processesˇ± of MOLECULES

Journal (http://www.mdpi.org/molecules/specialissues/baylis-hillman.htm). Both

comprehensive review articles and full research papers are invited.

 

You may send your manuscript soon or by *30 May 2009*. Papers accepted will

be published immediately. All the papers belonging to this special issue

will be gathered together in a homepage. Therefore, you may submit your paper

now. For review papers, the title and a short abstract can be sent to the Guest

Editor and a copy to [email protected] as soon as possible.

 

MDPI publishes several peer-reviewed, open access journals listed at

http://www.mdpi.org. There are 6 Nobel Prize winners on the editorial boards of

these scientific journals (http://www.mdpi.org/nobelists.htm). MOLECULES

(ISSN 1420-3049) journal has been published online since 1996

(http://www.mdpi.org/molecules/). It maintains a rigorous and fast peer-review

system. Well written papers have been peer reviewed and published in less than 1

month from manuscript submission, see the example:

http://www.mdpi.org/molecules/papers/11040212.pdf.

 

Because it is an online journal, papers published in MOLECULES receive very

high publicity. This journal is indexed and abstracted very rapidly by the leading

indexing and abstracting services including Beilstein, Chemical Abstracts,

PubMed and Science Citation Index Expanded (Web of Science).

 

This special issue will be fully Open Access with publishing fees paid by authors.

Open Access (unlimited access by readers) increases publicity and promotes more

frequent citations as indicated by several studies. More information is available at

http://www.mdpi.org/oaj-supports.htm.

 

Please send your paper by e-mail to [email protected] and send copies to Prof.

Dr. Guigen Li ([email protected]) and Dr. Derek McPhee ([email protected]).

The subject title of the message should be "Manuscript for Special Issue on

Baylis-Hillman Reaction and Related Processes".

 

In addition, if you have any suggestions of possible alternative special issue topics

related to Organic Synthesis, or can recommend a top expert to guest edit a

special issue, please do not hesitate to let us know.

 

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

 

On behalf of the Guest Editor
