description

Abstract This work is devoted to the study of compounds [M(N 4 )](TCNQ) n , where N 4 = saturated or unsaturated tetraazamacrocycles, TCNQ= 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane, n= 2, 3. The metal is coordinated to two TCNQ groups only when there is coordinative unsaturation on it. When n= 2 all the TCNQ units are radical anions and no charge delocalization is observed. In the compounds with n= 3 only 2 3 of the TCNQ are negatively charged and a greater charge delocalization is possible. This delocalization only appears when none of the TCNQ's are coordinated to the metal and it is reflected in the higher conductivity values obtained in the solid state.
