The Cover Feature shows sulfonic acid functionalized ordered mesoporous silica (RSO 3 H‐OMS) as catalyst for the acetonation of D ‐glucose. In their Full Paper, N. V. Krishna et al. demonstrate that the selectivity of this catalytic transformation can be altered by tuning the acidity of the catalyst, which depends on the nature and number of silanol groups on the surface of OMS used for grafting. More information can be found in the Full Paper by N. V. Krishna et al. on page 5610 in Issue 24, 2018 (DOI: 10.1002/cctc.201801462).
