Smectic and nematic derivatives of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) and their charge transfer complexes with mesomorphic dithienes
Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of a smectic and a nematic derivative of the strong electron donor tetrathiafulvalene are described which were found to form mixed crystals with the bis-styryl dithiolato metal complexes, which by themselves are smectic or nematic.
