摘要

3,6-Bis(2-cyanoethylthio)-2,7-bis(methylthio)tetrathiafulvalene was treated with sodium methoxide to deprotect 2-cyanoethyl groups, affording tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) bisthiolate. The generated thiolate was trapped by 9,10-bis(chloromethyl)anthracene to yield a novel multifunctional TTF-cyclophane based on tetrathiafulvalene units and anthracene units. Its electrochemical properties, UV spectra and fluorescence were studied by cyclic voltammetry and chemical oxidation. The results showed that the compound could selectively recognize OH-. The self-assembling behavior of the compound on the surfaces of gold nanoparticles was discussed by cyclic voltammetry and UV spectra.
