The cover picture shows synthesis, optical resolution, and circularly polarized luminescence of an axially chiral porphyrin dimer mimicking the naturally occurring chlorophyll dimer, Special Pairs . The title chiral porphyrin dimer was prepared by using 5,10‐diarylporphyrin as the starting material. Clear circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) spectra were obtained. Mt. Fuji is the symbol of Japan. Especially, Japanese love the figure of its reflection on the surface of water. This cover picture was designed based on this mirror imaged landscape connecting with the mirror image of the molecular structure and CPL spectra of our compound. More information can be found in the Full Paper by Watanabe and Sugiura et al . (DOI: 10.1002/slct.201800213). The cover picture was created by M.S. Nobuyuki Hara.
