H. Muller et Y. Ueba, SYNTHESIS AND PROPERTIES OF BIS[OXYBIS(METHYLENETHIO)]TETRATHIAFULVALENE AND ITS SULFUR ANALOG - PI-DONORS FOR ORGANIC METALS, Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan, 66(6), 1993, pp. 1773-1777
Bis[oxybis(methylenethio)]tetrathiafulvalene (BOBMT- TTF) and bis[thio
bis(methylenethio)]-tetrathiafulvalene (BTBMT-TTF) were synthesized in
two steps starting from 1,3,4,6-tetrathiapentalene-2,5-dione. The ele
ctrochemical and donor of both compounds are discussed. BOBMT-TTF form
s a highly conducting charge transfer complex with TCNQ (sigma(RT) is-
approximately-equal-to 10 S cm-1).
