The cover picture shows a waterfall located in the Eastern Carpathians in Transylvania, near Bicaz Canyon. Although fluorinated organic compounds are nonexistent in nature, an increasing number of drugs (25 %) on the market contain at least one fluorine atom. Cyclic fluorinated β‐amino acid derivatives have been synthesized by selective hydroxylation and hydroxy?fluorine exchange. Details are discussed in the article by F. Fülöp et al. on p. 4993 ff.
