The cover picture shows an amino triphenolate vanadium(V) complex that has three 2,2,6,6‐tetramethyl‐1‐piperidinyloxy (TEMPO) spin carriers embedded in its structure. The addition of a Lewis base (trioctylphosphine oxide) switches the geometry from trigonal bipyramidal (TBP) to octahedral (OCT). This switching is detected with the use of EPR spectroscopy. Details are discussed in the article by E. Badetti, J. Vidal‐Gancedo, G. Licini et al. on p. 4968 ff . For more on the story behind the cover research, see the Cover Profile .
