The Back Cover picture compares the σ/π‐hole tetrel bonds in pyrazine/1,4‐dicyanobenzene⋅TH3F/F2TO (T=C and Si). The π‐hole tetrel bond is stronger than the σ‐hole tetrel bond for the same tetrel atom. The nitrogen atom of pyrazine has a stronger affinity with the silicon atom than that of 1,4‐dicyanobenzene.
