Crystal structures of molecular complexes of 2-chloro-11,11,12,12-tetracyanoanthraquinodimethane with benzene (1:1) and pyrene(2:1): A novel type of charge transfer complexes

Abstract

X-Ray crystal studies of the titled molecular complexes have revealed the arrangement of parallel overlap between one of the benzene rings of the heavily deformed TCNAQ moiety and donor benzene and pyrene molecules, presumably attributable to the complex formation with weak charge transfer interactions.
