The Front Cover shows a variety of dienophiles used in the synthesis of functionalized polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons over the past decade via the Diels‐Alder reaction. Being discovered almost a century ago, this powerful synthetic method can be used for construction of new materials for organic electronics – one of the modern challenges of organic chemistry. Linear or angular, planar or curved, molecular or polymeric – the product scope is vast and will broaden even more with further development of new diene and dienophile components.
