Tetrathiafulvalenyllithium has been used to synthesise monofunctionalised TTF derivatives using the appropriate p-toluenesulfonyl- reagent. An improved route for forming 4,5-bifunctionalised derivatives is also reported.

The synthesis of cyanotetrathiafulvalenes is described using tetrathiafulvaleneyllithium intermediates to afford the desired products both conveniently and in good yield. 4-Cyanotetrathiafulvalene (2) has been used as a building block to synthesize new derivatives with potentially interesting solid-state structures. The X-ray crystal structure of 2 reveals that neither hydrogen-bonding interactions nor cyano-cyano dipole interactions are implicated in the overall packing.
