The Back Cover picture shows the selective oxidation of 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural to 2,5‐furandicarboxylic acid as a bioplastics precursor. The reaction is performed using a simple non‐precious metal catalyst system based on cost‐effective and ubiquitously available manganese oxide, sodium bicarbonate, and molecular oxygen. More details can be found in the Communication by Hayashi et al. on page 654 in Issue 4, 2017 (DOI: 10.1002/cssc.201601443).
