Planar acetylene-expanded TTFAQ analogues.
Two planar acetylene-expanded TTFAQ analogues (8a and 8b) were synthesized through a one-pot, 4-fold Sonogashira coupling protocol. The structure and electronic properties of these compounds were investigated by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, UV-vis spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry.
