摘要
A TTF-based (TTF= tetrathiafulvalene) tridentate ligand (alpha-(4'-methyl- 4,5-di- n-dodecylthylthiotetrathiafulvalene- 5'-ylthio)- a'-[ 2,2,2-tris(1-pyrazolyl) ethoxy]- p-xylene) (L) with long-chain alkyl moieties was prepared in order to obtain a new multi-redox active gelator based on a mixed-metal octanuclear complex [ FeIII 4NiII 4(CN) 12(tp) 4(L) 4](BF4) 4 (1). The magnetism, electrochemistry, and gelation behavior of 1 were studied and 1,2-dichlorobenzene solutions of 1 are shown to display thermoreversible gelation behavior at room temperature. Furthermore, the gel phase of 1 was shown to undergo room-temperature gel-to-sol transformations induced by both the oxidation and reduction of the gelator complex by F(4)TCNQ or [FeII(Cp*) 2], respectively.
