Outside Front Cover: Chelation Drives Surface Substitution in Hybrid‐MXenes

The cover illustrates chelation-driven surface substitution in a hybrid MXene, where ethylenediamine replaces bromine terminations on Ti3C2 to form stable bidentate amido (–NH) ligands. Chelation contracts the interlayer spacing while reshaping the surface coordination environment, highlighting ligand denticity as a new strategy for engineering the structure, surface chemistry, dynamics, and properties of two-dimensional materials.
