The Cover Feature illustrates the electrochemical oxidation of 2-iodobenzoic acid to 2-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) through a 2-iodosobenzoic acid intermediate at a boron-doped diamond electrode. The process takes place with high selectivity and high charge yield. More information can be found in the Communication by T. Bystron et al. on page 1002 in Issue 7, 2018 (DOI: 10.1002/celc.201800027).
