The cover picture shows a satellite‐shaped C 60 ?oligophenylenevinylene (OPV) conjugate. This compound has been prepared starting from a fullerene carboxylic acid derivative and an OPV heptamer bearing two alcohol functions. Electrochemical investigations revealed that the fist reduction of this hybrid compound is centered on the fullerene subunits, whereas the oxidation is centered on the OPV rod. Details are discussed in the article by J.‐F. Nierengarten et al. on p. 3627 ff.
