Soluble hybrid organic–inorganic semiconductors based on polyarylamines and a dodecylmanganese molecular nanomagnet (see Figure) possess high conductivities at low oxidation levels, making this material attractive as a charge‐transport material in organic solar cells and organic light‐emitting diodes. Additionally, the magnetism of the Mn 12 cluster is not affected by the presence of the conducting polymer, as expected for isolated nanomagnets.
