A sulfur rich electron acceptor and its [Fe(Cp*)2]+ charge transfer salt with ferromagnetic interactions†
Abstract
The study of a side product of the aerial dithiolene oxidation allowed the rational and efficient synthesis of a sulfur rich electron acceptor, (E)-3,3′-diethyl-5,5′-bithiazolidinylidene-2,4,2′,4′-tetrathione, that presents easily accessible redox states and forms with decamethylferrocene a charge transfer salt exhibiting ferromagnetic coupling.
