The cover picture shows how an organocatalytic reductive coupling reaction became a key reaction for the high‐yielding two‐pot total synthesis of sexually deceptive chiloglottones, regarded as an unexplored class of natural products. Chiloglottones 1–6 were identified in orchids of the genus Chiloglottis , in which they act as pheromones to fool its pollinator, the male wasp Neozeleboria cryptoides . Details are discussed in the Short Communication by R. Madhavachary and D. B. Ramachary on p. 7317 ff .
