Abstract Invited for the cover of this issue is the group of Stefan Jopp at the University of Rostock. The image depicts the conversion of acrylic acid and n‐butanol into butyl acrylate through an engine of Novozym 435, in which the powering piston CalB (Candida antarctica lipase B) is supported by the newly developed GMIM‐I (glucosyl‐methyl‐imidazolium iodide). The authors acknowledge Dr. Johanna Meyer (University of Hannover) for the creation of the cover image. Read the full text of the article at 10.1002/open.202200135.
