ExTTF-Based Dyes Absorbing over the Whole Visible Spectrum
2011
International audience; New push−pull dyes featuring π-extended tetrathiafulvalene (exTTF) as the donor group and tricyanofuran (TCF) as the acceptor group were synthesized and characterized. Their broad absorption covers the entire visible spectral range and enters the near-infrared region. Electrochemistry and theoretical calculations provided an understanding of these singular electronic properties. The new dyes are appealing candidates as light harvesters in photovoltaic devices.

International audience; Electrocrystallization of bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (BEDT-TTF) in the presence of the tris(chloranilato)ferrate(III) [Fe(Cl2An)3]3– paramagnetic chiral anion in different stoichiometric ratios and solvent mixtures afforded three different hybrid systems formulated as [BEDT-TTF]3[Fe(Cl2An)3]·3CH2Cl2·H2O (1), δ-[BEDT-TTF]5[Fe(Cl2An)3]·4H2O (2), and α‴-[BEDT-TTF]18[Fe(Cl2An)3]3·3CH2Cl2·6H2O (3). Compound 1 presents an unusual structure without the typical alternating organic and inorganic layers, whereas compounds 2 and 3show a segregated organic–inorganic crystal structure where layers formed by Λ and Δ enantiomers of the paramagnetic complex, together with…

Abstract The synthesis, structure and physical properties of two new radical salts formed with the organic donor bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (BEDT-TTF or ET) and a racemic mixture of the chiral anion (tris(tetrachlorobenzenediolato)phosphate(V)) (TRISPHAT) are reported. The structure of the salts (ET)4[TRISPHAT]4 · 3.5H2O (1) and (ET)(TRISPHAT) · CH2Cl2 · CH3CN (2) has been solved by X-ray single crystal diffraction. Unusual packings of ET molecules are obtained in the two structures. The electrical properties indicate that both compounds are insulators. This is in agreement with the isolation of the ET molecules and their complete ionization. On the other hand, the anisotropy of …
Structural diversity in charge transfer salts based on Mo3S7 and Mo3S4Se3 clusters complexes and bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (ET)
2007
Chemical modification of the trinuclear [Mo3(μ3-S)(μ2-S2)3Br6]2− cluster, at either the outer bromine or the disulfide ligands, allows the facile preparation of the dianions [Mo3(μ3-S)(μ2-S2)3(tdas)3]2− ([1]2−) (tdas = 1,2,5-thiadiazole-3,4-dithiol), [Mo3(μ3-S)(μ2-SSe)3Br6]2− ([2]2−) and [Mo3(μ3-S)(μ2-S2)3Cl6]2− ([3]2−). Electrocrystallization of bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (ET) in the presence of these dianions affords a series of charge transfer salts, namely (ETA)(ETB)[1], (ETA)(n-Bu4N)[2], (ETA)(ETB)[3]2·CH3CN, and ((ETA)(ETB)(ETC)(ETD))2{[3]2Cl}·CH3CN, where the ET subscripts denote crystallographically independent molecules. In all cases, the various cluster–cluster, cluster…
A new series of π-extended tetrathiafulvalene derivatives incorporating fused furanodithiino and thienodithiino units: a joint experimental and theor…
2004
A new family of tetrathiafulvalenes has been prepared. The materials exhibit complex redox behaviour related to the electronic influence of the 1,4-dithiin moieties embedded within the framework of the molecules. The X-ray crystal structure of compound 4 reveals an unusual non-planar conformation of the heterocyclic compound, with the TTF fragment adopting a boat conformation. Theoretical calculations, performed at the DFT level (B3P86/6-31G*), confirm the boatlike structure (C2v symmetry) as the most stable conformation for this family of tetrathiafulvalenes. Upon oxidation, electrons are extracted from the whole molecule and the radical cations and dications remain highly distorted from p…
Electronic Transitions in Tetrathiafulvalene and Its Radical Cation: A Theoretical Contribution
2001
The low-lying electronic states of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) and its radical cation (TTF+) have been studied using the multistate extension of a multiconfigurational second-order perturbation method (MS−CASPT2). The minimum-energy equilibrium geometries optimized at the CASSCF level have a boatlike conformation for the neutral molecule, with no significant barrier toward planarity. A more aromatic planar structure is, however, found for the ionic system. For TTF, the calculations of the vertical excitation energies comprise valence singlet and triplet states as well as the lowest members of the Rydberg series converging to the first ionization limit. Valence doublet states have been consider…

The salt [ET](3)[Sb(2)(L-tart)(2)].CH(3)CN (1) has been obtained by electrocrystallization of the organic donor bis(ethylendithio)tetrathiafulvalene (ET or BEDT-TTF) in the presence of the chiral anionic complex [Sb(2)(L-tart)(2)](2-) (L-tart = (2R,3R)-(+)-tartrate). This salt crystallizes in the chiral space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) (a = 11.145(2) angstroms, b = 12.848(2) angstroms, c = 40.159(14) angstroms, V = 5750.4(14) angstroms(3), Z = 4) and is formed by alternating layers of the anions and of the organic radicals in a noncentrosymmetric alpha-type packing. This compound shows a room temperature electrical conductivity of approximately 1 S.cm(-1) and semiconducting behavior with an activa…

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 …
