The cover picture outlines the formation of 5‐cyanotetrazole from sodium azide and sodium cyanide, which can be further converted into its hydrolysis products tetrazole‐5‐carboxamide and tetrazole‐5‐carboxamide oxime. Both products were deprotonated to form the respective hydroxylammonium salts. Among other nitrogen‐rich salts of tetrazole‐5‐carboxamide oxime, they were structurally characterized. The silver salt of 5‐cyanoetetrazole is an example of rarely described crystal structures of silver tetrazolate salts. A full account can be found in the Full Paper by T. Klapötke and co‐workers on page 877 ff.
