New Electron Acceptors: Synthesis, Electrochemistry, and Radical Anions of N,7,7-Tricyanoquinomethanimines and X-ray Crystal Structures of the Trimethyl and Tetramethyl Derivatives
Bryce, Martin R.,Davies, Stephen R.,Grainger, Andrew M.,Hellberg, Jonas,Hursthouse, Michael B.,et al.
, p. 1690 - 1696 (2007/10/02)
The reaction of a range of quinones 3 with malononitrile in the presence of titanium tetrachloride/pyridine yields dicyanoquinomethides 4, which on reaction wit N,N'-bis(trimethylsilyl)carbodiimide are converted into the corresponding N,7,7-tricyanoquinom
Sterically crowded tetracyano-para-quinodimethanes: synthesis and structure of 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-7,7,8,8-tetracyano-para-quinodimethane
Rosenau, Bernhard,Krieger, Claus,Staab, Heinz A.
, p. 2081 - 2084 (2007/10/02)
The sterically crowded 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-7,7,8,8-tetracyano-para-quinodimethane (1) has been synthesized.The unique sterical structure of 1 is discussed based on X-ray structure analysis.
