The front cover picture supplied by Carla Carfagna and co‐workers depicts an efficient process for the diastereospecific bis‐alkoxycarbonylation of 1,2‐disubstituted olefins, leading to the synthesis of 2,3‐disubstituted‐succinic diesters. Using Pd(TFA) 2 as palladium source, bis‐(2,6‐dimethylphenyl)‐2,3‐dimethyl‐1,4‐diazabutadiene as ligand and p ‐benzoquinone as oxidant, aliphatic, aromatic, cyclic olefins and unsaturated fatty acid methyl esters, have been successfully converted in the presence of different alcohols, under mild reaction conditions ( P CO =4 bar, T =20 °C). Further details can be found in the full paper on pages 3507–3517 (D. Olivieri, F. Fini, R. Mazzoni, S. Zacchini, N. Della Ca′, G. Spadoni, B. Gabriele, R. Mancuso, V. Zanotti, C. Carfagna, Adv.
