Cover: Palladium complexes initiate the living copolymerization of CO with methylenecyclopropane with a dihydroanthrene group, and produce polymers containing cis‐fused six‐membered ring. Bases such as DBU induce epimerization of the monomer unit to afford the polymer with trans‐fused rings selectively. Further details can be found in the Full Paper by D. Takeuchi, T. Okada, J. Kuwabara, and K. Osakada * on page 1546.
