The first molecular charge transfer salt containing proton channels
Abstract
We report the first molecular charge transfer salt containing
channels of H3O+/H2O within its lattice;
it is formulated
β″-(BEDT-TTF)4[(H3O)Cr(C2O
4)3]2[(H3O)2(18-cro
wn-6)]·5H2O [BEDT-TTF =
bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene], deduced from the crystal structure
and CC and C–S bond lengths and Raman stretching
frequencies.
