SOMO Wrestling Molecules of C 6 F 5 CNSSN and TEMPO radicals tangle on the Dohyō. In their Communication on page 1371, J. M. Rawson and co‐workers implement favorable electrostatic contacts to drive cocrystal formation between different radicals. The concept is exemplified through the preparation and structural characterization of three sets of radical cocrystals: the 2:2 cocrystal [PhCNSSN] 2 [MBDTA] 2 and the 2:1 cocrystals [C 6 F 5 CNEEN] 2 [TEMPO] (E=S, Se).
