The chemistry and physics of molecule‐based materials are exciting subjects, and due to potential applications this area is being extensively investigated. Considerable effort is currently being made to design and to investigate new materials involving interplay or synergy between multiple physical properties. This microreview examines materials combining magnetism and electrical properties. Some fundamental background material is covered, together with a discussion of constraints on the design of molecular materials with these physical properties. Some examples from the literature are then related, in order to illustrate the achievements in this area. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2004)
