Abstract
Electrically conducting single crystals of (D)5Nb6Cl18(CH2Cl2)0.5[D = 2,3,6,7-tetramethyl-1,4,5,8-tetra-selena- and -thia-fulvalene (TMTTF) and (TMTTF) in (1) and (2) respectively] have been grown electrochemically; their unique crystal structure shows a one-dimensional stack with a periodicity twice that of the Bechgaard salts; the observed Curie–Weiss behaviour of the magnetic susceptibility demonstrates the presence of one non-interacting spin per unit-cell; this is not purely a cluster spin as indicated by e.s.r. spectroscopy.Keywords
