The Organic Letters Journal features on its front cover the recently published research article “Enantioselective Molecular Recognition in a Flexible Self-Folding Cavitand” by Dr. Agustí Lledó and co-workers. A chiral and adaptable self-folding cavitand receptor based on calix[5]arene folds around the matched enantiomer of a chiral tetraalkylammonium guest, with the Els Encantats mountain (Catalan Pyrenees) in the background. The blurred mirror image of the mountain and the opposite empty enantiomer of the receptor are reflected on the lake. Original background picture by Isabeau Romaine Ottolini.
