The Front Cover shows the ruthenium‐catalyzed dehydrogenation of alcohols with carbodiimide compared to Archery. The carbodiimide as a hydrogen acceptor (first arrow) converts complicated alcohol into corresponding ketone precisely by cooperation with ruthenium catalyst (Target) through a hydrogen transfer mechanism. The resulting amidine (second arrow) also reacts as hydrogen acceptor for the next dehydrogenation of alcohol (Target). More information can be found in the Full Paper by S. Sueki, M. Anada et al.
