The cover picture shows the reactivity of half‐sandwich bis(aluminate) complexes of the rare‐earth metals that can be converted either into cationic methyl species by protonolysis or into dimeric dimethyl species by donor‐induced cleavage of the aluminate moieties. Details are discussed in the article by J. Okuda et al. on p. 2801 ff.
