Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to present to you this Special Issue of Inorganics titled “The Latest Findings in Organometallics—Synthesis, Conformation and Biological Evaluation”.
The first organometallic compound was prepared more than 200 years ago (mercuretin, 1809), but its structure was not resolved until 175 years later by Croatian scientist Drago Grdenić (1919–2018) and his colleagues. In general, the chemistry of organometallic compounds experienced an upsurge after World War II, and with the discovery of ferrocene in 1951, became a new branch of chemistry. Organometallic compounds of transition metals are now widely used as specific reagents in organic synthesis, and they have also been identified as intermediates in many catalytic processes. Due to their diverse structures caused by a wide range of metals and ligands, they also have different biological activities and are always an interesting area of research.
In this Special Issue, we would like to publish your latest findings related to the synthetic routes, conformation, biological evaluation and computational analysis of your compounds, in the form of original research articles or short critical reviews.

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. Inorganics 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 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.
