The Cover Feature shows a new substitution pattern obtained when reacting phenanthrolines with organolithium compounds. Contrary to the now classical 2,9‐disubstitution described in the seminal paper of Christiane Dietrich‐Buchecker et al., to whom this article is dedicated, a 2,7‐disubstitution pattern was found by chance under given conditions. A rare spontaneous resolution of its bis(phenanthroline)copper(I) complex in the solid state is also described in the article. (cover picture created by Nina Hernandez).
