Tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) exhibits two reversible oxidation steps and is used as a novel multi-electron catholyte for nonaqueous organic redox flow batteries. To increase solubility in polar solvents, TTF derivatives with side chains are synthesized. 4-Methoxymethyl tetrathiafulvalene emerges promising two-electron because it liquid at room temperature miscible acetonitrile. Bulk-electrolysis ex...

The complexation reaction between salen (Bis(salicylidene)ethylenediamine) and Cu(II) cations in methanol (MeOH), 2-propanol (2-PrOH), acetonitrile (AN), tetrahydrofuran (THF), and chloroform (CHCl3) as nonaqueous solvents at 25º C has been investigated. The stoichiometry and formation constants of complexes have been determined spectrophotometrically and conductometrically by method of continu...
