The Front Cover shows a series of trimethylsilanes Si(CH 3 ) 3 X that were structurally characterized. The selected silanes are useful tools for the transfer of the functional groups X. Herein X represents electron withdrawing alkyl, alkenyl, and alkynyl groups containing hydrogen or electronegative fluorine or chlorine atoms. The silanes are easily prepared from the respective lithium reagent LiX and chlorotrimethylsilane. A new route for the preparation of LiX (X = trifluoropropyn‐1‐yl) starting from the cryogen 2,3,3,3‐tetrafluoropropene was discovered. More information can be found in the Full Paper by B. Hoge and co‐workers.
