High Inhibition for a CoII Tetrazole Bi‐pyrazole Dinuclear Complex against Fusarium Oxysporum f. sp. Albedinis

The Cover Feature illustrates how a newly obtained dinuclear cobalt complex bearing a novel bipyrazole and tetrazole-based ligand 1′-((1H-tetrazol-5-yl)methyl)-3,5,5′-trimethyl-1′H-1,3′-bipyrazole fights off the fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. Albedinis, represented in blue, which is the main cause of the Bayoud disease responsible for great damage to the palm trees in North Africa. In a fictional boxing match, the dinuclear cobalt metal complex is knocking out the fungi with ease, symbolising the treatment of sick plants, thus yielding healthy palm trees ready to be harvested for dates. More information can be found in the Research Article by Y. Garcia and co-workers.
