Novel functionalized bis-tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) derivatives are built on the 1,3,5-benzene core. Long alkyl chains have been incorporated on peripheral positions of the TTF moieties in order to increase the solubility of the final products. After appropriate functionalization of the bis-TTF it has been covalently attached to the C-60 core yielding the first C60TTF2 triad. Electrochemical and spectroscopic studies of the target compounds suggest that there are no significant interactions between the TTF units and the C-60 moiety in the ground state.
