Syntheses of noble signal transduction molecules possessing two orthogonally oriented redox moieties and their application to logical gates

构建不使用电传导的高尚信号转导分子是当前逻辑门节能功能的问题之一。我们克服这个问题的方法是在信号转导系统中使用电荷传播。这种体系的候选分子之一是具有两个正交取向的氧化还原基团的分子。我们成功地合成了碘基取代的四硫代戊硫代醌-1,3-二硫硫胺衍生物，并在固态中用卤素键将它们正交排列。

Constructing of noble signal transduction molecules without the use of electrical conduction is one of the current issues for power saving function in logical gates. Our approach to overcome this issue is employing charge propagation for signal transduction system. One of the candidates for such system is a molecule possessing two orthogonally oriented redox moieties. We have succeeded in the syntheses of the iodine group substituted tetrathiafulvalenothioquinone-1,3-dithiolemthide derivatives and arranging them orthogonally by halogen bonding in the solid state.
