✦ Synopsis

Retro‐cycloaddition of easily prepared pyrrolidinofullerenes affords quantitatively pristine fullerenes, and thus can be used as a new protection‐deprotection protocol in the chemistry of fullerenes, as shown in the cover picture. In their Communication on page 110 ff., N. Martín, L. Echegoyen, and co‐workers report on this promising finding, which has already allowed the selective isolation of the I~h~ constitutional isomer of Sc~3~N@C~80~.

**Chirality is transferred** from 12 stereogenic centers, all of the same chirality, to the six templating zinc(II) ions in each enantiomer of an optically active Borromeate. Recognizing that the three‐component Borromean link is topologically achiral, J. F. Stoddart et al. describe in their Communi
