Two fields are united in Mo 2 B 4 O 9 , the first borate compound incorporating transition‐metal clusters into its crystal structure. It thus constitutes the hitherto unknown interface between two previously separated fields of research—borate and metal cluster chemistry. In their Communication on page 6449 ff., H. Huppertz and co‐workers show how the planned reduction of a reagent in a high‐pressure experiment smoothed the way to this novel substance class.
