Synthesis and applications of tetrathiafulvalenes and ferrocene-tetrathiafulvalenes and related compounds

Synthesis and redox behavior of new ferrocene-π-extended-dithiafulvalenes: An approach for anticipated organic conductors

“…The starting 1,1′-diacylferrocene derivatives 5a and 5b were synthesized cleanly and in high yields according to previously reported methods [12–13 15]. The 1,3-benzodithiole-2-phosphonate 6 was obtained in relatively high yield as described previously in literature [14,28–29].…”

“…In this work we synthesized a series of novel 1,1′-bis[(1,3-dithiol-2-ylidene)heteroaryl/aryl]ferrocene [1,1′-bis(1,3-DTF)Fc] derivatives as new electron donor compounds using the direct Wittig–Horner cross coupling reaction. The starting 1,1′-diacylferrocene derivatives 5a and 5b were synthesized cleanly and in high yields according to previously reported methods [ 12 – 13 15 ]. The 1,3-benzodithiole-2-phosphonate 6 was obtained in relatively high yield as described previously in literature [ 14 , 28 – 29 ].…”

“…For instance, TTFs containing two or more fused or covalently attached TTF units have been used for preparing superconducting salts [10–11]. Recently, a number of modifications have been performed even on the tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) skeleton 1 in the search of new molecular-based organic metals [12–16]. Furthermore, the extension of conjugation between the two 1,3-dithiole units of TTF and their conducting salts has been prepared studied [17–23].…”

Structure and Properties of a BEDT‐TTF‐Based Organic Conductor with a Ferrocene‐Based Magnetic Anion Octamethylferrocenedisulfonate

“…Organic conductors that have both electrical conducting and magnetic properties have received great attention due to reports of unique physical phenomena that emerge from an interplay between the itinerant and localized electrons . For this reason, ferrocene derivatives have also been introduced into organic conductors . However, these salts show poor conductivity.…”

Synthesize, crystal structure, heat capacities and thermodynamic properties of a potential enantioselective catalyst

“…Ferrocene-based derivatives have been widely used in a lot of fields, such as electrochemistry [1][2][3], material science [4][5][6], and particularly enantioselective catalysis [7][8][9], because of their stability, easy introduction of planar chirality, and special electronic-and stereo-properties of the ferrocene skeleton. Recently, PPFA (shown in Scheme 1), a ferrocene-based chiral phosphorus intermediate, has been widely applied in the designing and synthesizing of chiral ligands due to its diversity in ligand preparation [10,11].…”
