SYNTHESIS AND ELECTROCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF BIS(3,4-FURYLDIMETHYLTHIO)TETRATHIAFULVALENE AND OTHER TETRATHIAFULVALENE DONORS WITH 8-MEMBERED HETEROCYCLES
Rl. Meline et al., SYNTHESIS AND ELECTROCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF BIS(3,4-FURYLDIMETHYLTHIO)TETRATHIAFULVALENE AND OTHER TETRATHIAFULVALENE DONORS WITH 8-MEMBERED HETEROCYCLES, Synthetic metals, 96(3), 1998, pp. 205-207
Bis(3,4-furyldimethylthio)tetrathiafulvalene, bis(but-2-ene-1,4-dithio
)tetrathiafulvalene and ,3-dimethylbut-2-ene-1,4-dithio)tetrathiafulva
lene are synthesized in high yield from tetrakis(cyanoethylthio)tetrat
hiafulvalene and primary alkyl halides. Electrochemical properties are
compared and the new donors are related to analogous quasi-one-dimens
ional organic metals. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserv
