Summary:The Cover shows a crystal of the UMCM‐1‐NH2 metal–organic framework (MOF) adsorbing a RhI homogeneous catalyst during asymmetric hydrogenation of an olefin. In their Communication, Vilhanová et al. show that the enantioselectivity of asymmetric hydrogenation of selected olefins with a chiral RhI homogeneous catalyst is increased by employing aprotic solvents such as dichloromethane and toluene. Particularly in toluene, MOFs can be used as additives, resulting in adsorption of the catalytic complex into the cage of the porous material. More information can be found in the Communication by B. Vilhanová et al. on page 308 in Issue 2, 2016 (DOI: 10.1002/cctc.201500907).
