Chiral magnets exhibit two important optical properties: intrinsic optical activity and the Faraday effect. Two‐dimensional chiral magnets reveal these effects at higher critical temperatures than their one‐dimensional counterparts. On page 4810 ff., K. Inoue and co‐workers describe the structure and magnetic properties of such a chiral molecular magnet in which Mn II and Cr III ions are shown to interact ferrimagnetically; the magnetic transition occurs at 38 K.
