Functionalization of the cyclodextrin platform with tetrathiafulvalene units: an efficient access towards redox active Langmuir–Blodgett films
Abstract
Electroactive cyclodextrins persubstituted with pendant tetrathiafulvalene moieties were synthesized and electrochemically characterized by cyclic voltammetry. They show a very good ability to be transferred as Langmuir–Blodgett films, independently of the hydrophobic character of the redox active part.
