The cover picture shows schematically, the manner in which a conformationally locked polycyclitol can be thought of as a LEGO ® brick in the supramolecular world. This analogy manifests during the self‐assembling process by involvement of intermolecular H‐bond donors and acceptors engendered in preordained positions through the rigid trans ‐decalin framework and intramolecular O–H···O hydrogen bonding between the 1,3‐diaxial OH groups. Details are discussed in the article by G. Mehta et al. on p. 423 ff.
