Development of a Novel Phenalenyl-Based Organic Conductors : A Relationship between Structure and Function

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project was focused on the relationship between molecular alignment and physical properties in molecular conductors. Especially, we tried to construct two unique molecular alignments : spiral and ladder, by the use of the new designed molecules. To increase intermolecular interactions and control of crystal orientations, phenalenyl that is a neutral PAH radical was introduced in this research. We succeeded in synthesizing both target molecules. Their electronic structures were revealed by physical measurements. Now, we try to obtain a crystal and extract a new function from its molecular alignment.
