Helicenes are π-conjugated aromatic compounds with helical shape arising from angularly fused aromatic rings. Radical helicenes combine unpaired electron spins with structural chirality and a π-conjugated framework that can offer intriguing prospects to study the synergy of electronic transport, magnetism and photoactivity. In our work, we employ STM and nc-AFM to investigate an open-shell biradical helicene that we adsorb onto metallic substrates, including magnetic nanoislands. Notably, we observe a Kondo resonance pointing towards the preservation of the open-shell character upon deposition onto Au(111).
