A series of fully methylthiolated bi-, ter-, and quatertetrathiafulvalenes have been synthesized using cross- and homocoupling reactions of tetrathiafulvalenylzinc derivatives; the tetracation-tetraradical derived from the helical tetrathiafulvalene tetramer exhibits an intramolecular association of the terminal cation-radicals.

In recent years, charge transport in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has shifted into the focus of scientific research. In this context, systems with efficient through-space charge transport pathways resulting from -stacked conjugated linkers are of particular interest. In the current manuscript, we use density functional theory-based simulations to provide a detailed understanding of such MOFs, which, in the present case, are derived from the prototypical Zn(TTFTB) system (with TTFTB corresponding to tetrathiafulvalene tetrabenzoate).

To diversify metal-organic framework (MOF) structures beyond traditional Euclidean geometries and to create new charge-delocalization pathways beneficial for electrical conductivity, we constructed a novel double-helical MOF (dhMOF) by introducing a new butterfly-shaped electron-rich π-extended tetrathiafulvalene ligand equipped with four benzoate groups (ExTTFTB). The face-to-face oriented convex ExTTFTB ligands connected by Zn(COO) paddlewheel nodes formed ovoid cavities suitable for guest encapsulation, while π-π-interaction between the ExTTFTB ligands of neighboring strands helped create new charge-delocalization pathways in iodine-mediated partially oxidized dhMOF. Iodine vapor diffusion led to oxidation of half of the ExTTFTB ligands in each double-helical strand to ExTTFTB radical cations, which putatively formed intermolecular ExTTFTB/ExTTFTB π-donor/acceptor charge-transfer chains with the neutral ExTTFTB ligands of an adjacent strand, creating supramolecular wire-like charge-delocalization pathways along the helix seams.

Rational control of the molecular arrangement in solids has been the subject of intense research for many years. In particular, the structural control of bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (ET) radical cations has attracted special interest because of the primary effect on the electronic properties of the salts. In this study, we obtained the first ET cation radical salts formed with nonuniform silver(I) complex polyanions, which involve multiple kinds of openings in the anionic layer, by an electrocrystallization method.

Tetrathiafulvalene redox units were grafted at both extremities of an oligopyridine-dicarboxamide foldamer through a straightforward copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition. The present work demonstrates that the hybridization equilibrium of foldamers can be tuned through redox stimulations.
