We studied formation and structural characteristics of charge-transfer solids of 9-n-butylguanine (BuG) with fluorinated tetracyanoquinodimethane derivatives (FnTCNQ, n = 4, 2, and 1). Complex formation in a methanol (MeOH)-containing solvent generated two types of salts composed of either a methoxy-substituted anion or a fully ionic anion radical of FnTCNQ. In all anion radical salts, BuG existed as a protonated or a hemiprotonated species, BuGH+ or (BuG)(BuGH+), respectively, and formed hydrogen-bonded (H-bonded) assemblies. In these BuGH+ assemblies, FnTCNQ•– molecules were fixed and aligned periodically, providing H-bonded polycationic templates. In (BuGH+)(F4TCNQ•–), BuGH+ dimers by complementary H-bonds formed a two-dimensional (2D) polycationic sheet. The F4TCNQ•– face-to-face dimers formed a one-dimensional (1D) segregated column aided by formation of H-bonds with BuGH+. In (BuGH+)(F2TCNQ•–)(MeOH), BuGH+ dimers by complementary double H-bonds formed a 1D polycationic ribbon supported by MeOH-media...
