The present status of organic superconductors of charge‐transfer (CT) type based on donor molecules is reviewed. Along with the superconducting phases of such materials and also of oxide superconductors, reside spin‐ordered phases such as spin‐density wave (SDW) and antiferromagnetic (AF) phases. We briefly describe the recent development of superconductors having a superconducting phase next to a spin‐disorder state (quantum spin liquid state). In addition to the CT type superconductors, there are a few single‐component superconductors under high pressure. DOI 10.1002/tcr.201000039
