The cover picture shows two pairs of half‐sandwich ( R M , R C )/( S M , R C ) diastereomers that co‐crystallize, although each diastereomer should crystallize in its own lattice. The ( S Fe , R C ) diastereomer of the Fe pair with the “red” Fe configuration imitates the ( R Fe , R C ) diastereomer with the “sky‐blue” Fe configuration to become its “almost enantiomer” in racemate‐like 1:1 co‐crystals. In the Ru pair the ( R Ru , R C ) diastereomer adopts the chelate ligand conformation of the ( S Cu , R C ) diastereomer to resemble it so closely as to form conglomerate‐like co‐crystals. The background photograph shows a Japanese morning glory, which winds counterclockwise. Details are discussed in the article by H. Brunner, T. Tsuno et al. on p. 5405 ff .
