The cover picture shows the left‐handed ( M ) and the right‐handed ( P ) propeller conformations of a stable tris(tetrathioaryl)methyl radical and its isomerization mechanism. Due to steric hindrance, enantiomerization between the two chiral conformations ( M and P ) of tris(tetrathioaryl)methyl radicals, alcohols and alkanes is restricted allowing isolation of enantiomers. Details of this work are described in the article by J. Marchand‐Brynaert et al. on p. 6517 ff.
