The Front Cover shows the de novo synthesis of gold nanoparticles‐embedded, nitrogen‐doped nanoporous carbon as an efficient catalyst for the reduction of 4‐nitrophenol. In their Communication, Liao et al. have revealed a new method for simultaneously adding different functionalities into nanoporous materials. This is a collaboration mainly between National Taiwan University and Hokkaido University, therefore, their symbols are represented each side of the cover image. To indicate the significance of this new method, we adapt the words of Dr. William S. Clark, the first president of Hokkaido University, from “ Boys, be ambitious ” to “ Boys, be de novo synthesis ”. More information can be found in the Communication by Liao et al. on page 502 in Issue 3, 2016 (DOI: 10.1002/cctc.201501020).
