Crystal structure and molecular packing in a new organic semiconductor penta[bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene]-hexathiocyanatomononitratoyttrium(III)-ethanol

A new radical cation (ET) 5[Y(NCS) 6NO 3]·C 2H 5OH salt was prepared by electrochemical oxidation of ET in a chlorobenzene–ethanol solution. Its crystal structure and conducting properties were examined. The salt has a layered crystal structure with a new type of molecular packing in the radical cat...

Description
Summary:A new radical cation (ET) 5[Y(NCS) 6NO 3]·C 2H 5OH salt was prepared by electrochemical oxidation of ET in a chlorobenzene–ethanol solution. Its crystal structure and conducting properties were examined. The salt has a layered crystal structure with a new type of molecular packing in the radical cation layer, which was called the ω-type. The observed electroconducting properties suggest that this salt is a semiconductor.
