The Back Cover picture shows a nanoporous network with pendant nitrile groups and microsphere morphology. These microspheres are easily decorated with primary amines through in situ reduction by widely available boranes, and their surface area can easily be tuned. These structures can be used as sorbents for CO 2 capture applications, such as those with fluidized beds requiring spheres of micron sizes. More details can be found in the Communication by Dogan et al. on page 2130 in Issue 10, 2017 (DOI: 10.1002/cssc.201700190).
