The Front Cover shows temperature‐induced spin crossover (SCO) in a 2D ferrous nitroprusside. The hysteresis loop in the magnetization curve indicates the cooperativeness of the phenomenon. The Mössbauer spectra depict the phase composition at 5 and 295 K. At room temperature, a fraction of the sample is found in the low spin state. The SCO transition involves a color change from brown (top) to deep gray (bottom). The low spin phase is characterized by a shorter Fe‐N L distance, as suggested by the included compression mechanism. More information can be found in the Full Paper by E. Reguera et al.
