title: Novel electron donors containing multi-TTF units: synthesis and electrochemical properties.
abstract: The synthesis and electrochemical properties of five novel organosulfur electron donors containing two to four TTF nuclei are reported. The structures have been assigned by 1H NMR spectroscopy, infrared spectrometry and mass spectra. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) studies show that the multi-TTFs display nearly ideal redox behavior for the TTF system with no distinct interaction between the TTF units.
