Abstract: The Cover Feature illustrates the sample environment of a neutron diffraction instrument filled with tetrahedra. These tetrahedra are key structural elements of the reported compound Sr4Ba3(BO3)3.83H2.5 and represent the sample. The blue ray displays the neutron beam that gets scattered by the central tetrahedron. Only by the means of neutron diffraction, was it possible to determine the exact chemical composition, particularly of the tetrahedra. In this case, a unique complex [BO3H]4− anion was discovered. More information can be found in the Research Article by A. Mutschke and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/chem.202403048).
