Issue 8 of volume 87 of the J. Org. Chem. contains the Back Cover and two manuscripts of DiMoCat group!

The Back Cover of issue number 8 of volume 87 refers to the recently published article “Successive Diels-Alder cycloadditions of cyclopentadiene to [10]CPP⊃C₆₀”. The work has been carried out by Gerard Pareras, Sílvia Simon, Albert Poater and Miquel Solà, all (excepte Gerard) members of the DiMoCat group of the Institute of Computational Chemistry and Catalysis of the University of Girona.  The design and original idea of the artwork are acknowledged to Miss Coral Garcia-Fernandez and Dr. Gerard Pareras.
