AI Article Synopsis
- A new compound called BTBT(OH) was created, which includes benzothienobenzothiophene with two hydroxy groups.
- The compound was turned into a charge-transfer salt, β-[BTBT(OH)]ClO, that features a unique hydrogen-bonded chain structure.
- This structure enhances the electronic properties of the material, resulting in a stable metallic state.
Article Abstract
A dihydroxy-substituted benzothienobenzothiophene, BTBT(OH), was synthesized, and its charge-transfer (CT) salt, β-[BTBT(OH)]ClO, was successfully obtained. Thanks to the introduced hydroxy groups, a hydrogen-bonded chain structure connecting the BTBT molecules and counter anions was formed in the CT salt, which effectively increases the dimensionality of the electronic structure and consequently leads to a stable metallic state.
