Front Cover Picture: Exploring Ferrocenyl Imine‐Phosphane Complexes in Gold(I) Redox Switchable Catalysis and the Role of the “Magic Blue” Oxidant (Adv. Synth. Catal. 18/2024)
The front cover illustrates the dual role of the “Magic Blue” molecule. Set in an enchanting forest, a whimsical wizard conjures two gold complexes in a magical cauldron full of “Magic Blue”. The compounds react via chloride abstraction for the [AuCl(JohnPhos)] catalyst and one-electron oxidation for the ferrocenyl imine-phosphane catalyst. Fairies are depicted pulling a chloride atom and an electron, respectively, showcasing the dynamic nature that “Magic Blue” oxidant can adopt depending on the molecule it reacts with.
