The synthesis of functionalised electron donors and acceptors and the study of their interaction
Rejchrtová, Blanka ; Starý, Ivo (advisor) ; Betík, Robert (referee)
This work is focused on the stepwise preparation of model dimer, containing tetrathiafulvalene as electron donor unit. Main method used in the synthesis was Sonogashira coupling. Theoretical part deals with current state of research in the field of nanoscience and nanotechnology and molecular electronics. It is focused on noncovalent interactions, especially of the electron donor - electron acceptor (CT complexes). Properties of tetrathiafulvalene and its derivatives are described in detail as well as mechanism of Sonogashira coupling. In the part devoted to the results and discussion is described preparation of monomeric precursor from known TTF alcohol and new iodobenzylbromide with protected acetylene function. Stepwise synthesis utilizing Sonogashira coupling leads to the preparation of model dimer in moderate yield. All new compounds were characterized by spectral methods (NMR, MS, FTIR) and by elemental analysis, eventually HR-MS.

Application of Quantitative Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) and Commercially Available EPR Standards for Electrochemical Study of the Subsituted Tetrathiafulvalene Oxidation.
Habániková, Shannelle Diana ; Tarábek, Ján (advisor) ; Mazúr, Milan (referee)
Tetrathiafulvalene derivatives are remarkable molecules, with various application, reported relatively recently. The radical cation of these compounds has very inter- esting optical, electronic, electrocatalytic superconducting and magnetic properties that have been intensively studied recently. Quantitative in-situ EPR voltammetric spectroelectrochemistry studies of 2-(2-hydroxyethylsulfanyl)-3-(benzylsulfanyl)-6,7- bis(octadecylsulphanyl)tetrathiafulvalene (TTF-Der3) have been carried out with the aim to confirm the oxidation sites, follow-up reactions (after the first electron transfer), and electrochemical behaviour. The diffusion process was confirmed by the depen- dence of current on the square root of the scan rate. It was claimed that the ratio of the number of generated radicals to transferred charge (electrons) for two representative TTF derivatives was determined to 5.5:500 for and 7:500 for TTF, indicating the follow- up reactions. Experiments were performed using the commercially available EPR standards, calibrated for this method (experimental setup). The latter was validated by quantitative EPR with standard 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl radical concentration (1·10−4 mol dm−3). For the ratios the confidence interval was reported for the first time for TTF-Der3 it was...
