The Cover Feature illustrates the interaction of pyridyl‐substituted BODIPYs with triarylborane Lewis acids. This interaction induces measurable red shifts in the UV/Vis absorption and photoluminescence, the magnitude of which depends on the strength of the Lewis acid and the proximity of the interaction to the BODIPY core. More information can be found in the Article by K. S. Choung et al. on page 86 in Issue 2, 2019 (DOI: 10.1002/cptc.201800202).
