Cover Feature: Heptagon/Octagon‐Fused Diporphyrins or Spiro‐Pentagon‐Bridged Dichlorin from p‐Terphenylene‐Bridged Diporphyrin (Chem. Asian J. 6/2023)

The cartoon figure on the cover image is Monkey King, who is a character in the classical Chinese novel “Journey to the West”. He has 72 polymorphic transformations. As shown in the cartoon, he only needs to blow a breath and can create a lot of little monkeys. p-Terphenylene-bridged NiII porphyrin dimer, which is similar to Monkey King, gave syn- and anti-doubly heptagon-fused NiII porphyrin dimers, a spiro-pentagon-bridged NiII chlorin dimer, and a doubly octagon-fused NiII porphyrin dimer depending on the different reaction conditions. The Chinese characters represent the abbreviation of Hunan Normal University. More information on this study can be found in the Research Article by Jianxin Song et al.
