Abstract

Abstract : The Cover Feature illustrates the pathways undergone by ditellurocines from the solid state (represented by stones) to the solution (represented by the water cascade). Once the ditellurocine crystals/stones roll down in the cascade, metamorphosis occurs, from the cubic‐like arrangement to a caterpillar (less stable chair conformation) then to a lying butterfly (transition state) and to a flying butterfly (more stable boat conformation). More information can be found in the Full Paper by J.‐P. Djukic, V. Mamane, and co‐workers .
