The Cover Feature shows a pentacyanidonitrosylmoybdate‐based bimetal assembly, Cs 1.26 Mn 0.87 [Mo(CN) 5 (NO)]·0.6H 2 O, which exhibits magnetization‐induced second harmonic generation (MSHG). This compound possesses a non‐centrosymmetric crystal structure composed of pentacyanidonitrosylmolybdate, manganese, and cesium ions. The non‐centrosymmetric structure causes a SHG effect when irradiated with nanosecond pulsed laser. Furthermore, the intensity of the second harmonic light was enhanced by a MSHG effect due to the long‐range magnetic ordering at low temperature.
