The reviewed literature documents that certain metallaaromatics with unconventional photophysical properties, redox and electronic transport properties and magnetism, have potential to be widely used in diverse practical applications, with selected examples of amino acid identification, photothermal effects, functional materials, photodynamic therapy (PDT) in biomedicine, single‐molecule junction conductors, and electron‐transport layer materials (ETLs) in solar cells. Abstract In recent years, the field of organometallic chemistry has made a...
