Front Cover: Carboxamides as N‐Alkylating Reagents of Secondary Amines in Indium‐Catalyzed Reductive Amination with a Hydrosilane (Eur. J. Org. Chem. 20/2017)

The cover picture shows a novel molecular transformation from a carboxamide to an amine through an indium‐catalyzed reductive amination using a hydrosilane, represented by a billiards game. The two gray hydrogen balls of the hydrosilane and the blue nitrogen ball of the amine, struck by the yellow cue ball of the indium catalyst, hit the red oxygen and the blue nitrogen balls of the starting amide. The original oxygen and nitrogen balls are then replaced by the two hydrogen balls and one nitrogen ball to form the new amine structure. Details are discussed in the Communication by N. Sakai et al. on page 2866 ff (DOI: 10.1002/ejoc.201601629).
