Outside Back Cover: Polyphosphorus Ligand Complexes of Coinage Metals for Multiple Capturing of Intact P4 Tetrahedra (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 28/2025)
Graphical Abstract
Like attracts like, they say; however, decades elapsed before mixed polyphosphorus ligand complexes were finally self-assembled. In their Research Article (e202503614), Eugenia Peresypkina, Manfred Scheer et al. demonstrate that reactive white phosphorus molecules can be captured by a polynuclear silver complex based on pentaphosphaferrocene and controllably released in solution. The cover image plays around the concept of high loading of intact tetrahedral P4 molecules within the carrier complex.
