It was reported earlier that alkali metal doped picene shows superconductivity at rather high temperatures. In this paper the authors have prepared such materials and thoroughly analyzed them using a variety of measurements. They conclude that superconductivity in doped hydrocarbons is questionable, casting doubts on the previous interpretation of the data.
