New electroactive supramolecular fibers have been formed by self-assembly of the derivatives of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) in liquid crystals. These derivatives are designed and prepared by introducing the TTF moiety to the scaffold derived from amino acids such as L-isoleucine whose derivatives function as organogelators. These TTF-based gelators form stable fibrous aggregates in liquid crystals. These fibers are the first example of hydrogen-bonded one-dimensional aggregates having electroactive moieties whose electrical conductivities were measured after doping. Their electronic states have also been characterized by spectroscopic methods. Unidirectionally aligned fibers are formed in the oriented liquid crystal solvents on the rubbed polyimide surface for further functionalization of the fibers.
