Novel κ‐type organic metal based on a bis‐fused tetrathiafulvalene derivative

A novel k‐type organic metal based on 4,5,‐cyclohexeno‐TTP (where TTP is bis‐fused tetrathiafulvalene, TTF), see Figure, is reported. The synthesis, structure, and electrical properties are described. It is suggested that, following this demonstration of a TTF‐based organic metal without a chalcogeno‐based substituent, further CH‐TTP salts should be investigated for conductivity and superconductivity. magnified image
