The Front Cover picture illustrates the effect of confinement on the Diels–Alder reaction between 1,3‐butadiene and ethylene. This reaction becomes thermodynamically as well as kinetically more favorable inside cucurbit[7]uril, whereas it is less favorable within ExBox +4 . More information can be found in the Full Paper by P. K. Chattaraj and co‐workers on page 2162 in Issue 16, 2017 (DOI: 10.1002/cphc.201700308).
