Oligomeric Tetrathiafulvalene Macrocycles

All articles of this category A novel type of cyclic multi-tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) derivatives is described, including a number of new highly functionalized TTF building blocks. The modular and convergent synthetic methodology allows the sequential assembling of each building block leading to the desired tris-, tetrakis- and pentakis(tetrathiafulvalene) macrocycles 10, 13 and 14 in excellent yields. tetrathiafulvalene
