Multicentre two-electron (mc/2e or 'pancake bonding') bonding between 7,7,8,8-tetra-cyano-quinodi-methane (TCNQ) radical anions was studied on its 14 novel salts with planar organic cations. The formal charges of the TCNQ moieties are -1/2 and -2/3, and they form mc/2e bonded dimers, trimers and tetramers which are further stacked into extended arrays. Multicentre bonding within these oligomers is characterized by short interplanar separations of 2.9-3.2 Å; distances between the oligomers are larger, typically >3.3 Å. The stacks are laterally connected by C-H⋯N hydrogen bonding, forming 2D arrays. The nature of mc/2e bonding is characterized by structural, magnetic and electrical data. The compounds are found to be semiconductors, and high conductivity [10 (Ω cm)] correlates with short interplanar distances between pancake-bonded oligomers.
研究了7,7,8,8-四氰基对苯二醌二甲烷(TCNQ)自由基阴离子之间的多中心双电子(mc/2e或“薄饼键合”)键合,该键合存在于其14种含平面有机阳离子的新型盐中。TCNQ部分的形式电荷为-1/2和-2/3,它们形成mc/2e键合的二聚体、三聚体和四聚体,这些聚体进一步堆叠成扩展阵列。这些低聚物中的多中心键合的特征是平面间间距短,为2.9 - 3.2 Å;低聚物之间的距离更大,通常>3.3 Å。这些堆叠通过C-H⋯N氢键横向连接,形成二维阵列。mc/2e键合的性质通过结构、磁性和电学数据来表征。发现这些化合物是半导体,高电导率[10(Ω·cm)]与薄饼键合的低聚物之间的短平面间距离相关。
