The Cover Feature illustrates how a newly obtained dinuclear cobalt complex bearing a novel bipyrazole and tetrazole-based ligand 1′-((1H-tetrazol-5-yl)methyl)-3,5,5′-trimethyl-1′H-1,3′-bipyrazole fights off the fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. Albedinis, represented in blue, which is the main cause of the Bayoud disease responsible for great damage to the palm trees in North Africa. In a fictional boxing match, the dinuclear cobalt metal complex is knocking out the fungi with ease, symbolising the treatment of sick plants, thus yielding healthy palm trees ready to be harvested for dates. The artwork for the cover was done by Olivera Cvetković. More information can be found in the Research Article by Y. Garcia and co-workers.

The Front Cover shows our rare earth corrosion inhibitor work. Corrosion is a significant burden to infrastructure, including bridges, and we have shown that incorporation of steric bulk about heteroatoms on the ligands bound to rare earth atoms (right figure) affects the ability to inhibit corrosion, compared to when we have open access to these heteroatoms (left figure). The artwork for the cover was done by Vidushi Vithana. More information can be found in the Research Article by P. C. Junk and co-workers.
