The cover picture shows the various aspects that influence the mechanism of interaction of NO with transition‐metal complexes of biological and environmental relevance in solution. The underlying reaction mechanism is, in many cases, an unsolved puzzle, such that the key to a specific aspect can reveal details not known or not understood before. In this way, different aspects such as the nature of the metal complex, solvent and experimental conditions (temperature and pressure) can play a key role. Details are presented in the Microreview by A. Franke and R. van Eldik on p. 460 ff.
