The front cover artwork is provided by the group of Prof. Ralf Ludwig at the University of Rostock in collaboration with Prof. Frank Weinhold at the University of Wisconsin Madison. The image shows the cyclic tetramer of hydrogen bonded cations in ionic liquids. The like‐charge attraction is supported by strong cooperativity and weakly coordinating anions.
