1,1-Bis(tetrathiafulvalenyl)ethylenes, synthesized using the palladium- catalyzed ross-coupling of 4-trimethylstannyl-TTF with 2,2-disubstituted 1,1- dibromoethylenes, were converted into the corresponding CT-complexes and cation-radical salts to determine the electric conductivities and magnetic properties.
