The back cover picture , designed by Xavier Verdaguer, shows how the phosphonium salt of MaxPHOS, creates a soap bubble which protects it from oxidation. The illustration is an allegory of how PH/NH tautomery and protonation leads to an oxygen‐resistant form of the ligand. The corresponding Rh(I)‐MaxPHOS complex was tested in the asymmetric hydrogenation of a wide range of substrates as reported in the full paper on pages 795–804 (E. Cristóbal‐Lecina, P. Etayo, S. Doran, M. Revés, P. Martín‐Gago, A. Grabulosa, A. R. Costantino, A. Vidal‐Ferran, A. Riera, and X. Verdaguer, Adv. Synth. Catal. 2014, 356, 795–804; DOI: 10.1002/adsc.201300662). .
