Front Cover : In article number 1800929 by Ikuyoshi Tomita and co‐workers, the titanium atom in a regioregular organometallic polymer is replaced by the tin atom by the post‐element transformation technique, just like a billiard game: the “Ti ball” originally located on the polymer is about to drop into the pocket by the impact of the “Sn ball”. The stannole‐containing π‐conjugated polymers thus obtained exhibit low‐lying LUMO energy levels owing to the molecular orbital interaction with the tin moieties.
