Abstract

Neutral π-conjugated molecules and their radical cations co-exist in [(EDT-TTF-CONHMe&lt;superscript&gt;+&lt;/superscript&gt;&amp;z.rad;)&lt;SUB&gt;4&lt;/SUB&gt;(EDT-TTF-CONHMe&lt;superscript&gt;0&lt;/superscript&gt;)&lt;SUB&gt;2&lt;/SUB&gt;] [Re&lt;SUB&gt;6&lt;/SUB&gt;Se&lt;SUB&gt;8&lt;/SUB&gt;(CN)&lt;SUB&gt;6&lt;/SUB&gt;]&lt;superscript&gt;4−&lt;/superscript&gt; (CH&lt;SUB&gt;3&lt;/SUB&gt;CN)&lt;SUB&gt;2&lt;/SUB&gt;(CH&lt;SUB&gt;2&lt;/SUB&gt;Cl&lt;SUB&gt;2&lt;/SUB&gt;)&lt;SUB&gt;2&lt;/SUB&gt; whose crystal structure reveals that, upon one-electron oxidation, an activation of the N–H and C–H hydrogen bond donor ability is coupled to a deactivation of the hydrogen bond acceptor character of the carbonyl oxygen atom: this is expressed in the supramolecular hydrogen bond pattern and, ultimately, into charge localisation and partition in the solid state.
