Synthesis, electronic and crystal structure of a new organic semiconductor tetramethyltetrathiafulvalene-trinitroresorcinol (2:1), (TMTTF)₂(C₆H₂N₃O₈)

A new organic semiconductor with trinitroresor-cinol as the anion, (TMTTF)₂(C₆H₂N₃O₈) (1) (TMTTF: tetramethyltetrathiafulvalene),
Tetramethyltetrathiafulvalene (TMTTF)
has been synthesized and its crystal structure has been in-vestigated at room and low temperatures (295 and 110 K). The crystal structure of 1 is formed by one-dimensional stacks of cation-radicals (TMTTF)^+1/2 separated by tri-nitroresorcinol anions (C₆H₂N₃O₈)^–. This novel salt reveals semiconducting properties. Tight-binding band structure calculations for 1 have been carried out in order to un-derstand the charge distribution among the different donors.
