Invited for the cover of this issue are Matthieu Jouffroy from Discovery Process Research at Janssen Pharmaceutica N.V. and the group of Rafael Gramage-Doria at the University of Rennes. The image depicts an Ir-based catalytic system "fueled" by hydrogen for the direct reductive amination of ketones and secondary amines, allowing complex aliphatic tertiary amines to be prepared and, so, new chemical space to be reached.
