K. Ueda et al., Synthesis, and electrical conducting and magnetic properties of neutral bis(tetrathiafulvalenyldithiolato) cobalt complexes, SYNTH METAL, 103(1-3), 1999, pp. 1976-1977
Neutral bis(tetrathiafulvalenyldithiolato) cobalt complexes (1a - 1c) have
been synthesized, whose room-temperature electrical conductivities (sigma(r
t)'s) are 10(-4) - 10(-10) S . cm(-1) The SQUID measurement showed that the
cobalt atom is in the state of Co(II) (S = 1/2). Addition of an equimolar
amount of tetramethylthio-substituted TTF (4) to la brought about marked in
crease by ca. 10(7) in the sigma(rt) value.
