Abstract

Invited for the front cover of this issue are Stefanie Tschierlei, Sven Rau and co-workers. The image shows the fusion of an organic chromophore with a Ru^II polypyridine moiety resulting in a unique bichromophoric photosensitizer. Read the full text of the article at 10.1002/chem.202103609.
