The cover picture shows the recognition of CH 2 Cl 2 molecules for hexaphenylbenzene bromide HBH in solid state (Atom colors: C, gray; Br, red; Cl, green; H, white). With propeller‐like shape, hexaphenylbenzene bromides display different recognition abilities for guest molecules in solid state. HBH can encapsulate CH 2 Cl 2 or Et 2 O molecules selectively from different solvent systems. For DBH , the recognition pattern is dominated between themselves. In CH 2 Cl 2 /toluene/Et 2 O system, toluene molecule can be encapsulated selectively by MBH . In these supramolecular assemblies, bromine bonding plays an important role. More details are discussed in the article by Zhang et al . on page 1031–1036.
