The cover picture shows a Pd‐promoted homocoupling reaction of polyenylsilanes carried out in water containing nonionic amphiphiles. The reaction in the “green” aqueous environment affords extended conjugated polyenes with higher yields relative to those obtained when the same process is performed in organic solvents. Details are discussed in the article by G. M. Farinola et al. on p. 2275 ff. The background shows a nice view of Polignano a Mare, a lovely small town few miles away from Bari, located on a sea cliff along the Adriatic coast of Puglia.
