A polyphenol-derivative ferromagnetic polymer was successfully synthesized from oxidative polycondensation of 4-(1-(2-phenylhydrazono)ethyl)benzene-1,3-diol abbreviated as 2,4-PHEB, and the obtained materials were fully characterized by using UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance and single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The optical, electrochemical, fluorescence, magnetic and thermal properties of the newly synthesized compounds were investigated in detail. The results revealed that the poly(2,4-PHEB) had ferromagnetic and semi-conductive (1.59 S/cm) properties. Additionally, the poly(2,4-PHEB)/p-type Si junction device is fabricated, and it was determined that the poly(2,4-PHEB)/p-type Si junction device showed good rectifying behavior.
