Abstract
Novel highly soluble isomeric tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) dimers with unu sual divinylnaphthalene spacers have been prepared from Wittig reactio ns. The cyclic voltammetry of the new TTF dimers reveals an independen t behaviour of the two TTF units which show different oxidation potent ial values depending upon the substitution pattern.
