Abstract : The cover picture shows the concept underlying the design of a melanin‐inspired electroluminescent material for organic light‐emitting diode devices. Both symmetric and asymmetric triazatruxene derivatives were synthesized. Comparison of the opto‐electronic properties of these derivatives, supported also by theoretical calculations, suggests that the asymmetric isomers are more promising for application in organic electronics.
