Abstract

Invited for this month's cover is the group of Prof. Dr. Frank Hollmann at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. The Front Cover shows the vanadium-dependent haloperoxidase from the marine organism Curcuvaria inaequalis, which efficiently activates halides as hypohalites that can then initiate spontaneous halo-lactonization and halo-etherification reactions. The Communication itself is available at 10.1002/cssc.201902240.
