A Redox-Active Tri-Star Molecule: Merging of TTF and HAT Chemistry | ||
A redox-active, planar and conjugated heteroaromatic molecule has been synthesized and fully characterized. It combines two characteristics, a charge-transfer transition originating from its inherent donor-acceptor nature in its neutral state and an intervalence charge-transfer transition in its mixed-valence state. This work was carried out in the group of Prof. Silvio Decurtins. References:
