Abstract

Abstract Two new unsymmetrical tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) derivatives, 2,3‐bis(cyanoethylthio)‐6,7‐(methyl‐ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (6a) and 2,3‐bis(cyanoethylthio)‐6,7‐(cyclopentodithio)tetrathiafulvalene (6b), have been prepared and characterized by NMR, MS, IR and Elemental analyses. The molecular structures have been determined by X‐ray crystallography. Their redox properties have been investigated by cyclic voltammetry in dichloromethane solution and each compound shows two reversible single‐electron redox couples.
