In this issue, Qichun Zhang et al. review organic cocrystals’ properties and applications such as NIR sensing, photocatalysis, batteries, and stimuli responses. The Minireviews deal with carbonylation reactions at carbon-centered radicals with adjacent heteroatoms (Le-Cheng Wang, Xiao-Feng Wu), carbon- and nitrogen-based complexes as photocatalysts for prebiotic and oxygen chemistry during Earth evolution (Yuanxing Fang et al.), as well as NIR-II AIEgens for infectious diseases phototheranostics (Dong Wang et al.). Graham J. Hutchings et al. highlight the smart design of non-noble catalysts for sustainable propane dehydrogenation. Martina Letizia Contente and Oliver Dumele report from the 57th Bürgenstock Conference on Stereochemistry.

In the original research section, Quan Li et al. present visible-light-driven solid-state fluorescent photoswitches for high-level information encryption. Stefanie Dehnen et al. describe a strain-induced structural rearrangement towards a white-light-emitting adamantane-type cluster dimer. Elodie Anxolabéhère-Mallart et al. unraveled the mechanism of CO₂ electrocatalytic reduction by an iron porphyrin by operando spectroelectrochemistry. Andreas Marx et al. applied cell-permeable NAD⁺ analogs to identify ADP-ribosylation targets (see picture).
