Front Cover: Atroposelective Nenitzescu Indole Synthesis (Chem. Eur. J. 25/2023)

For the helix-shaped vines growing in the garden, as well as for many bioactive molecules and other three-dimensional objects, chirality is an essential and ubiquitous property. The synthetic control of atropoisomerism along C−N bonds is particularly rare and challenging, however. A simple CrIII–salen complex was nevertheless used as a chiral enantiopure catalyst for a highly atroposelective Nenitzescu indole synthesis.
