Abstract

Invited for the cover of this issue are the groups of Michael Ruck and Eike Brunner at the Technische Universität Dresden, Germany. The cover image shows the enhanced reactivity of red phosphorus in the employed ionic liquid. Dissolved iodine molecules (yellow spheres) etch red phosphorus to form either molecular iodides like PI3 or phosphorus nanoparticles. The formation of the different species is monitored by liquid- (top) and solid-phase (bottom) NMR spectroscopy.
