Abstract The cover picture shows a phenomenon of supramolecular chirogenesis in an achiral bisporphyrinoid host upon noncovalent interaction with chiral antipodal guests. This host–guest interaction results in the phenomenon of chirality transfer followed by the induction of circular dichroism in the porphyrin electronic transitions. Details are presented in the Microreview by V. Borovkov and Y. Inoue on p. 189 ff.
