Dodecameric (H 2 O 2 ) 12 and pentameric (H 2 O 2 ) 5 clusters were observed for the first time in crystal structures of 2‐aminonicotinic acid and lidocaine N ‐oxide peroxosolvates. In their Communication on page 15241 ff., P. V. Prikhodchenko, A. V. Churakov et al. show that the self‐assembly of hydrogen peroxide molecules does not require any special conditions, and large H 2 O 2 clusters can be formed if crystal packing provides free space.
