We analyze the entanglement properties of the ground state for a system of spins half
embedded in a magnetic field, mutually interacting antiferromagnetically. Contrary to the
ferromagnetic case where a second-order quantum phase transition occurs, a first-order
transition is obtained at zero field and the so-called concurrence which measures the two-
spin entanglement displays a jump at the transition point.
