Back Cover : In article number 2100616 by Félix Freire and co‐workers, dynamic helical polymers such as poly(phenylacetylene)s interact and respond to external stimuli such as metal ions, due to the formation of a helical polymer metal complex (HPMC), which can further be transformed into a hybrid material by reducing the metal ion. The resulting nano‐composites combine the properties of the metal nanoparticles and the dynamic helical polymers and show stimuli‐responsive properties towards different stimuli such as metal ions, temperature or solvents. Moreover, these nanocomposites can be nanostructured into nanospheres that show a dynamic chiral shell and encapsulation properties.
