Outside Front Cover: Stereoselective Self‐Assembly of a Topologically Chiral [6]Catenane with 18 Crossings (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 41/2025)
The cover image depicts a [6]catenane topology woven from six interlocked rings with 18 crossings, formed via coordination-driven self-assembly. Chirality transfer from enantiopure ligands yields exclusively topological enantiomers. The mirrored, semi-transparent structure below represents the opposite-handed topology against a celestial backdrop, highlighting the elegance and grandeur of the assembly. Details are reported by Guo-Xin Jin, Zheng Cui, et al. in their Research Article (e202515400).
