The cover feature shows organic structure‐directing agents that have been designed by using a de novo algorithm to control the synthesis of four zeolites selected for their applications in carbon capture and storage. Specifically, a molecule designed to direct the synthesis of the zeolite PCOD8186909 is shown here. These directing agents simplify synthetic routes to zeolites that have potential in membrane separation of CO 2 /CH 4 , a technology for the mitigation of global warming caused by the emission of greenhouse gases. More details are given in the Full Paper by F. Daeyaert and M. W. Deem on page 277 in Issue 2, 2020 (DOI: 10.1002/cplu.201900679).
