The Cover Picture shows how screening can be used to identify molecular catalysts for the chemical oxidation of water. Such catalysts are highly relevant in the context of storage of energy from alternative resources. Water splitting is a crucial step to generate fuel (hydrogen), and one of the challenging reactions is water oxidation. The screening protocol utilizes an OxoDish, which operates through oxygen‐sensitive fluorescence‐quenching. More details can be found in the Full Paper by J. N. H. Reek et al. on page 3057 in Issue 18, 2015 . (DOI: 10.1002/cssc.201500558 ).
