Abstract

Abstract A series of new macrobicyclic tetrathiafulvalenophanes of type 1 and 2 with three tetrathiafulvalene bridges has been prepared under high-dilution conditions using a stepwise selective protection-deprotection of tetrathiafulvalenethiolates. All the macrobicyclic tetrathiafulvalenes, along with the intermediate compounds 5 and 6 and the unexpected tetrathiafulvalene pentamers 17, were studied by cyclic voltammetry. An ...
