The front cover artwork is provided by Axel Griesbeck and Diana But at the University of Cologne (Germany). The image shows a cartoon of the hydrogen‐transfer process initiating the singlet oxygen ene reaction with several strong regio‐ and stereodirecting effects following the rule of thumb: If you give singlet oxygen your little finger it will soon have your whole hand (as adapted from a quote by Sigmund Freud).
