The Front Cover shows that Fe(lV)=O is generated by the oxidative decomposition of H 2 O 2 on a hematite electrode and serves as the active center for selective styrene epoxidation. The generation of Fe(IV)=O from H 2 O 2 exhibited lower overpotential than that from H 2 O. This work is the first demonstration that Fe(IV)=O on a hematite electrode is applied to hydrocarbon oxidation reactions. More information can be found in the Communication by K. Kamiya et al. on page 648 in Issue 5, 2019 (DOI: 10.1002/cphc.201801207).
