“…Our long-term interest in chemical reactions induced by charge-transfer complexation forms a part of our systematic efforts to obtain new heterocyclic systems [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27]. We have turned our attention to phenylbiguanide as electron donor towards some -acceptors, such as tetracynoethylene (TCNE), 2-dicyanomethyleneindane-1,3-dione (CNIND), 2,3-dicyano-1,4-naphthoquinone (DCNQ), tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ), and 3,4,5,6-tetrachloro-1,2-benzoquinone (CHL-o), to synthesize some heterocycles with the expectation that they too might exhibit biological activity.…”
