Abstract

The preparation of some unsymmetrical tetrathiafulvalenes and the electrical conductivities of their charge transfer complexes with tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) are described; the ethylenedithio(trimethylene)tetrathiafulvalene–TCNQ complex exhibited higher conductivity than complexes of tetrathiafulvalene, tetramethyltetrathia-fulvalene, and hexamethylenetetrathiafulvalene with TCNQ.
