The cover picture shows the metaphoric link between the synthesis of two new manganese clusters and the ancient Japanese art of origami. Origami literally means “folded paper” and allows elaborate shapes and structures to be created from the most simple of materials. Likewise, in our research, rigid, planar ligands were employed to “fold” manganese ions into sophisticated helical superstructures. The structural, electronic, and magnetic properties are reported herein. Details are discussed in the article by T. Shiga, H. Oshio et al. on p. 2193 ff .
