Dimeric tetrathiafulvalenes: New electron donors
Review: Organic conductors based on new classes of dimeric TTFs (e.g., see figure) are reviewed. The complexes have structures in some cases which are determined by inter-TTF transannular interactions, leading to stretched, folded, and sandwich arrangements. These multi-TTF materials have potential applications in the development of molecular electronic devices based on multi-stage redox systems.
