Periodic and Molecular Modeling Study of Donor - Acceptor Interactions in (dbbpy)Pt(tdt) • TENF and [Pt(dbbpy)(tdt)]₂ • TENF

Description: This article discusses a periodic and molecular modeling study. Supramolecular stacked materials (dbbpy)Pt(tdt)•TENF and [Pt(dbbpy)(tdt)]₂•TENF are built from (dbbpy)Pt(tdt) donors (D) with TENF acceptors (A) (TENF = 2,4,5,7-tetranitro-9-fluorenone; dbbpy = 4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-bipyridine; tdt = 3,4-toluenedithiolate).
