The electronic and magnetic properties of molecules can be tuned in a wide range by charge transfer from molecules[1] and metal surfaces[2-4] or by doping with atoms[5].
In this work we tune the electronic structure by doping archetypal organic molecules with single metal atoms. An on-surface chemical reaction leads to electron spin transfer into a π-orbital that extends over the whole molecule, unlike in common molecular magnets where the spin usually resides in a d- or f-orbital of a metal ion that is shielded by organic ligands. We show that this complex has an unpaired spin which interacts with electrons in the metallic substrate and forms a Kondo singlet state. The advantage of such a radical may lie in its propensity to interact magnetically with its neighbours, offering the potential to harness this coupling.
