Linearly extended π-donors: when tetrathiafulvalene meets conjugated oligomers and polymers

Abstract

Molecular or polymeric π-electron donors based on the association of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) with linear π-conjugated systems are reviewed. Two main classes of materials are considered, namely electrogenerated polymers, either conjugated or not, and linearly extended TTF analogues built by insertion of different π-conjugating spacer groups between the two 1,4-dithiafulvenyl moieties. Particular emphasis is placed on the relationships between structure and electronic properties and on the potential offered by these new classes of π-electron donors.
