Crystal structures and electrical properties of 1 : 1 and 4 : 1 PF6 salts of BO-HBDTT with an alpha'-type donor arrangement
Crystal structures and electronic properties of [BO-HBDTT][PF6] and [BO-HBDTT](4)[PF6] have been clarified. The donor packing patterns in these salts can be basically classified into alpha'-type, in which the donor stacks in the twisted overlap mode regarding the 1,3-dithiole rings. Intrastack intermolecular C-H...O contacts play an important role in the metallic nature of [BO-HBDTT](4)[PF6].
