The cover picture shows a DNA duplex containing a biaryl unit, which is made up of benzene and pyrene moieties; an excimer is formed between the biaryl units, which results in the formation of a duplex. In the article by Y. Ueno et al. on p. 4763 ff the synthesis of the monomer units and oligonucleotides containing the biaryl units and the thermal stabilities of the duplexes, as well as their absorption and fluorescence properties, are discussed. The authors would like to thank Yoichiro Kato for his help in designing the cover picture.
