The back cover picture highlights Werner's legacy, which is celebrated by coordination chemistry contributions describing observations both in the first coordination sphere, the second coordination sphere and beyond. Specific orbital requirements define the geometry of complexes with Tc–Tc multiple bonds (Poineau et al.), and the binding of tetrathiafulvalene ligands to the Dy III dimer results in a single‐molecule magnet (Pointillart et al.). In addition, noncovalent interactions can order a system in layers as found for the organometallic Pd–uracil compound (Moriuchi, Hirao et al.), the ordering can be critical for the resulting spin polarization mechanism in cyanido‐bearing Co III /Co II complexes (Alexandru, Marino, Julve et al.) and for the ability of vapochromic Pt II complexes to support water binding in the solid state (Kobayashi and Kato). The background shows a group photo of the delegates taken at the 4th Zing Coordination Chemistry Conference held in Mexico in December 2013 (the background photo is used with permission from Zing Conferences Ltd.). Thanks to Guest Editor Debbie Crans for putting the parts of the composite cover together.
