Abstract
The Inside back cover picture shows that disulfide bonds can be easily formed by thiol‐diselenide (DiSe) exchange under blue light illumination. In this process, DiSe acts as a catalyst. Blue light sword increases the Se‐DiSe exchange rate. With the help of lotus leaves (the DiSe compounds), the frog (the reactant) can easily reach the final destination (the product) with disulfide and avoid the kinetic trap (the river). The authors showed that using this reaction, they can prepare hydrogels with improved mechanical and dynamic properties suitable for biomedical applications. More details are discussed in the article by Cao et al. on page 1578—1584.image
