A uniform and one-dimensional stacking of 2,5-dichlorotetracyanoquinodimethanide molecules in the tetramethylarsonium salt.
In the tetramethylarsonium salt of 2,5-dichloro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethanide [systematic name: tetramethylarsonium 2,2'-(2,5-dichlorocyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-diylidene)bis(propanedinitrile)], C(4)H(12)As(+).C(12)H(2)Cl(2)N(4)(-) or [As(CH(3))(4)](C(12)H(2)Cl(2)N(4)), the cation lies disordered about a twofold axis and the radical ion lies about an inversion center forming a uniform [interplanar distance 3.35 (2) A] and one-dimensional stacking without any slip. The electrical conductivity of the single crystal at room temperature was less than 10(-9) S cm(-1), and the temperature dependence of paramagnetic susceptibility obeyed a one-dimensional antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model with a spin-exchange integral of 83 K in the temperature range 1.8-320.0 K.
