The EUChemSoc Societieshave taken the signifi cant step into the future by merg-ing their traditional journals, to form two leading chemistry journals, the European Jour-nal of Inorganic Chemistry and the European Journal of Or-ganic Chemistry. Three further EUChemSoc Societies (Austria, Czech Republic and Sweden) are Associates of the two journals.

COVER PICTURE

The cover picture shows that acrolein, a mutagenicenvironmental pollutant formed during incompletecombustion, reacts with the cytosine base to yieldexocyclic ring adducts. Identification and charac-terization of adducts are discussed in detail inthe article by A. J. Pawłowicz, K. D. Klika, andL. Kronberg on p. 1429ff.
