Here, the single manganese (Mn) atom doping and assembly of the gold cluster (Au-8), leading to the chirality driven magnetism, has been achieved through a ligand-mediated growth. The X-ray absorption near edge structure and electron paramagnetic resonance studies corroborate the tetrahedral coordinated local structure of Mn dopant in the Au host. The optical and vibrational circular dichroic analysis affirms the modulation of chirality (negative to positive) in the presence of the Mn. A distinct ferromagnetic hysteresis loop at 300 K shows Mn ridden chiral sensitive ferromagnetism in contrary to the ligand influenced superparamagnetic undoped AMCs. The spin-polarized density functional theory level of calculations reveal the partial overlapping of spin-up and -down density of states in the doped AMCs, attributing to the ferromagnetic nature as like a molecular magnet suitable for the opto-spintronics application.
