The Cover shows the Fischer‐Tropsch synthesis reaction over iron‐based catalysts activated by graphitic carbon nitride (g‐C 3 N 4 ). In their Full Paper, Park, Youn et al. describe the considerably enhanced FTS activity and selectivity, attributed to the selective formation of Hägg carbide (χ‐Fe 5 C 2 ) on the g‐C 3 N 4 , which facilitates the reduction and carburization of iron species. The improved reduction and carburization degree of iron on the g‐C 3 N 4 originates from the electron‐rich nitrogen sites and the defect sites of the g‐C 3 N 4 structure. More details can be found in the Full Paper by J. S. Lee et al. on page 3488 in Issue 21, 2015 (DOI: 10.1002/cctc.201500794).
