The Cover shows the long‐chain NHC‐based catalyst represented as a broom, in an adaption of “The Sorcerer's Apprentice” by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe from Weimar, one of the most famous German poems:“Stand up here on two legs, screw a head on top,Run down to the stream's edge, with the water pot!” (translation from German)In their Communication, A. Rühling, L. Rakers et al. described the development of long‐chain‐NHC palladium complexes for catalysis in apolar solvents, which exhibit attractive properties from an industrial point of view. The long‐chain‐NHCs enhance the catalysts′ solubility in such solvents and therefore enables the catalytic amination and hydrodehalogenation of aryl chlorides. Mechthild Weiling‐Bäcker (weiling‐baecker@web.de) is gratefully acknowledged for creating the cover art. More information can be found in the Communication by A. Rühling et al. on page 547 in Issue 4, 2017 (DOI: 10.1002/cctc.201600963).
