The Front Cover shows the efficacy of homogeneous gold catalysis in the promotion of mild regio‐ and stereoselective indole‐functionalization reactions. In the last fifteen years, a lot of effort has been devoted to the optimization of gold‐based procedures, which have permitted the synthesis of complex indole derivatives starting from readily available precursors. Prof. Elisabetta Rossi, Prof. Giorgio Abbiati (Università degli Studi di Milano) and Prof. Rubén Vicente (Universidad de Oviedo) are acknowledged for helpful discussions and suggestions.
