Abstract
The reported Raman spectrum of the Rb TCNQ salt allows, for the first time, examination of all the vibrational features of the TCNQ − radical anion. The knowledge of the TCNQ fundamental frequencies as well as of those for neutral TCNQ makes it possible to interpret the infrared and Raman spectra of Cs 2 (TCNQ) 3 and to conclude that in this salt both neutral and negatively charged TCNQ units are present in the crystal. The result is a first fruitful application of vibrational spectroscopy to the study of complex TCNQ salts, opening the way to an extensive investigation of TCNQ semiconducting salts.
