The preparation and characterization of a new thin‐film organic‐based magnet V[MeTCEC] x (V = vanadium; MeTCEC = methyl tricaynoethylenecarboxylate) via low‐temperature chemical vapor deposition (50 °C) is reported. These thin films exhibit room‐temperature magnetic ordering and semiconducting behavior, demonstrating the ability of tuning their magnetic, and potentially spintronic, functionality via chemical modification of the organic ligand.
