Chemoenzymatic Halocyclization of gamma,delta-Unsaturated Carboxylic Acids and Alcohols.

Invited for this month's cover is the group of Prof. Dr. Frank Hollmann at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. The Front Cover shows the vanadium-dependent haloperoxidase from the marine organism Curcuvaria inaequalis, which efficiently activates halides as hypohalites that can then initiate spontaneous halo-lactonization and halo-etherification reactions.
