Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen bonding, p-p interactions and halogen bonding have proven to have tremendous effects on properties of molecular based compounds. Thus, it is not surprising that molecule-based magnetic materials exhibiting some type of magnetic bistabillity are also susceptible to their influence. From many already observed structure-property relationships in such compounds, one can easily recall e.g. an occurrence of multiple relaxation processes in Single-Molecule Magnets or different levels of cooperativeness in Spin-Crossover complexes, which both are often explained within the framework of non-covalent interactions presented among the molecules. Therefore, in this special issue, we would like to invite the authors to contribute with original works in the field of molecular magnetism aimed at magnetically bistable compounds whose properties are influenced or governed by non-covalent interactions.

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. Magnetochemistry 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 2200 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.
