Carbon Nanotubes are currently a subject of particular interest in materials chemistry. In the Communication by D. M. Guldi, F. Paolucci, M. Prato, and co‐workers on page 4206 ff., the preparation of a single‐wall nanotube–ferrocene (SWNT–Fc) nanohybrid is described. Photoinduced electron transfer gives rise to a long‐lived charge‐separated state (SWNT .− –Fc .+ ); the radical anionic form of the nanotube has been detected by laser flash photolysis.
