Synthesis and Properties of Conjugated Oligoyne-Centered π-Extended Tetrathiafulvalene Analogues and Related Macromolecular Systems
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Alkynyl-substituted phenyldithiafulvenes have been found to act as versatile building blocks for the construction of π-conjugated molecular rods, shape-persistent macrocycles (SPMs), and conducting polymers. Through Cu(I)-catalyzed alkynyl homocoupling, a series of linear-shaped π-extended tetrathiafulvalene analogues (exTTFs) carrying conjugated oligoynes (ranging from diyne to hexayne) as the central π-bridge were readily prepared. The solid-state properties and reactivities of diyne- and tetrayne-centered exTTFs were characterized by X-ray crystallography and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), while the electronic properties of the oligoyne-exTTFs were elucidated by UV-vis absorption spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Cyclic voltammetric analysis showed that the terminal phenyldithiafulvene groups of the oligyne-exTTFs could undergo oxidative coupling to form tetrathiafulvalene vinylogue (TTFV)-linked polymer wires. Through a different synthetic route involving oxidative dimerization and Pd/Cu-catalyzed alkynyl homocoupling, the acetylenic phenyldithiafulvene precursors led to shape-persistent macrocycles where the formation of trimeric macrocycles was particularly favored due to the small ring strain incurred. Finally, spectroelectrochemical studies on these oligoyne and TTF hybrid materials disclosed electrochromic and molecular redox-controlled switching properties applicable to molecular electronic and optoelectronic devices.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
