“Carving” molecules out of wood The synthesis of chemical materials from sustainable resources in an environmentally responsible way is an important challenge for a modern chemical infrastructure. In their Communication on page 14187 ff., T. Opatz, A. J. Arduengo et al. tackle the first of the four aspects of xylochemistry. The cover image (Jason W.
