Abstract The synthesis, structure and physical characterization of three new radical salts formed by the organic donor bis(ethylenediseleno)tetrathiafulvalene (BEDS-TTF or BEST) and the paramagnetic hexacyanoferrate(III) anion [Fe(CN)6]3− or the photochromic nitroprusside anion [Fe(CN)5NO]2− are reported: (BEST)4[Fe(CN)6] (1), (BEST)3[Fe(CN)6]2·H2O (2) and (BEST)2[Fe(CN)5NO] (3). Salts 1 and 3 show a layered structure with alternating organic (β–type packing) and inorganic slabs. Salt 2 shows an original interpenetrated structure probably due to the unprecedented presence of (BEST)2+ dications. The three salts are semiconductors although salt 1 exhibits a high room temperature conductivity and a semiconducting–semiconducting transition at ca. 150 K which has been attributed to a dimerization in the organic sublattice.
