The Inside Cover picture shows the excellent agreement between the experimental (cyan) and theoretical rotational spectrum (red) of o ‐methyl anisole in the gas phase. The analysis of torsional splittings from the internal rotation of the ring methyl group yields a three‐fold potential with a barrier height of 444 cm ‐1 .
