Front Cover: Two DendriMac polymers were synthesized via the combination of living anionic polymerization (LAP) and hydrosilylation/click chemistry. The polymeric core and arms were effectively synthesized via LAP as polymeric bricks. Hydrosilylation and click chemistry were used as coupling reactions to construct the DendriMac polymers with high efficiency and convenience. The whole construction can be regarded as the “building of polymeric bricks”. Further details can be found in the article by H. Ma, Q. Wang, W. Sang, L. Han, P. Liu, H. Sheng, Y. Wang, and Y. Li* on page 168.
