The Front Cover shows the magnetic phase diagram of the quasi 2D compound Mn II (dca) 2 (pym)(H 2 O) established by neutron diffraction on the 5C1 diffractometer at LLB‐Orphée. The directions of the ordered Mn II magnetic moments in the antiferromagnetic phases AF1 and AF2 are displayed for two neighboring layers. The induced spin densities (positive in red, negative in blue), determined by polarized neutron diffraction in the paramagnetic phase, depict the different magnetic interaction pathways: magnetic coupling is mediated by dca bridges inside layers and by H bonding between layers.
