Cover Story: The article "Solvent-Mediated Rate Deceleration of Diels–Alder Reactions for Enhanced Selectivity: Quantum Mechanical Insights" explores the influence of solvation effects on determining the outcome of chemical reactions. The key finding is that for the Diels–Alder reaction, the investigated polar solvents can significantly reduce the yield of unwanted side products. The cover shows the diene and dienophile reagents in the center and the two competing products on the outside. The product favored is displayed on the right in an enhanced size. View this paper
