Invited for the cover of this issue are the group of Prof. Mehring (TU Chemnitz) and his collaboration partners Prof. Lang (TU Chemnitz) and Prof. Auer (MPI for Chemical Energy Conversion). The cover image shows an inorganic adamantane‐type structure based on a germanium oxido cluster coordinated by W(CO) 5 . The arrows not only represent the coordination bonds but also point to four edifices in Chemnitz, which are typical for our city with a rich historical and industrial background.
