The Journal of Organic Chemistry features on its front cover the recently published research article “Successive Diels–Alder Cycloadditions of Cyclopentadiene to [10]CPP?C60: A Computational Study”.
The cover art describes computationally the functionalization of the [10]CPP?C60 by cyclopentadiene through successive Diels–Alder cycloadditions reaching the hexakis adduct system. The graphics depict the successive cycloadditions over the [10]CPP?C60 as a representation of an invasion of cyclopentadienes. The design and original idea of the artwork are acknowledged to Miss Coral Garcia-Fernandez and Dr. Gerard Pareras.
