Back Cover : Ionic liquids have been widely successful in many applications; here, 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate is demonstrated to be an effective initiator for electro‐induced polymerization of vinyl ethers. This reaction was studied by the versatile technique Fourier‐transform near‐infrared spectroscopy, offering advantages over other, more complicated and more time‐consuming methods. Using ionic liquids as electro‐polymerization initiators has potential applications in the development of anti‐corrosion coatings for metal pipes. Further details can be found in the article by F. Yang, J. L. Yang, K. J. Zheng, J. W. Stansbury, and J. Nie* on page 380.
