The cover picture shows the X‐ray crystal structure of {Nd[OC(C 4 H 3 S) 3 ] 3 (thf) 3 }·thf, a new neodymium thienylmethoxide. The structure determination of this compound reveals a monomer with an approximately octahedral geometry around the neodymium atom: this metal centre is surrounded by three tris(2‐thienyl)methoxido ligands and three tetrahydrofuran molecules in a facial arrangement. Details are discussed in the article by M. Veith et al. on p. 2397 ff.
