The front cover shows the harvest of a renewable supply of aromatic compounds accessible from lignin model compounds and lignin feedstocks through the selective Re 2 O 7 ‐catalyzed cleavage of lignin C–O bonds. This study paves the way towards the development of rhenium‐based catalysts for the reductive valorization of realistic lignin materials in a controlled manner. Details are given in the Communication by Changzhi Li and co‐workers on page 500 in Issue 6, 2018 (DOI: 10.1002/cplu.201700547).
