Abstract
Several new molecular tweezers with tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) arms as well as mono-TTF derivatives bearing 3, 5-di-tert-butylbenzylthio groups to provide enhanced solubility were prepared starting from a bis-cyanoethyl-protected tetrathiafulvalene derivative. The X-ray crystallographic analysis of 3 and 7a showed highly distorted TTF groups and absence of close TTF–TTF contacts in the crystalline state. Comparative cyclic voltammetry (CV) ...
