Abstract
TTF vinylogues containing hydroxyphenyl groups were newly prepared. They ar e stronger electron donors than BEDT-TTF and afforded their cation radical salts as single crystals upon electrochemical oxidation. X-Ray structure an alysis has revealed their unusual crystal structures, where pi -overlapping and hydrogen bonding play a crucial role in constructing them. (C) 2001 El sevier Science Ltd.
