Back Cover: The image depicts the efficient conversion of RAFT functionalized microspheres via a hetero Diels‐Alder reaction introducing narrow polydispersity polycaprolactone onto their surface. The transformation is accompanied by a decolorization of the spheres as thiocarbonyl functions are transformed into 3,6‐dihydro‐ 2H ‐thiopyran rings that constitute the linkage points on the microspheres. Further details can be found in the article by L. Nebhani, S. Sinnwell, A. J. Inglis, M. H. Stenzel, * C. Barner‐Kowollik, * and L. Barner * on page 1431.
