Abstract

Dithiinmaleimide (ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (1) and N-phenyldithiinmaleimide (ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (2) have been synthesized from bis(tetraethylammonium)bis(ethylenedithiotetrathiafulvalenyldithiolato)-zincate (3) in high yields. Their electrochemical properties were investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) measurements which show two reversible redox potentials of the tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) moiety and an irreversible reduction potential of the maleimide ring. The X-ray structure of1 shows close S…S contacts in the range of the van der Waals radii (3.6 Å) and hydrogen bonds between the maleimide unites.
