Coupling catalytic cycles through metal–ligand bifunctional catalysis or cooperative catalysis is like dancing the tango. In their Communication on page 1523 ff., A. Gansäuer and co‐workers show that amides can be activated for radical reduction by amide‐substituted titanocene(III) catalysts or through cooperative catalysis with titanocenes and Crabtree's catalyst (graphic design by Dina Schwarz G. Henriques).
