Abstract
The title tetraselenafulvalene (BET-TSF) and four related hybrid diselenadi thiafulvalenes (STF) have been synthesized as a five-membered heterocycle-f used tetrathiafulvalene type of novel electron donors, which form highly co nducting molecular complexes with 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane. In part icular, the complex of BET-TSF shows a room-temperature conductivity of 260 0 S cm(-1), which is of the highest class for a molecular complex.
