A synthetic procedure leading to derivatives of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) incorporating polyether chains of various lengths, some nitrogen analogs, and a 2, 6-bis (methylene) pyridine analog has been developed. These compounds possess cage-type structures which were confirmed by X-ray crystallography in four cases, two of which are reported herein for the first time. Structural and electronic features of these cage molecules were ...
