Tetrathiafulvalenes as building blocks in supramolecular chemistry II

This account highlights developments in the field of supramolecular tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) chemistry. Progress in synthetic TTF chemistry during the past decade has allowed the preparation of a number of elaborate molecular systems based on host–guest interactions being able to act as either sensors, molecular switches or mediators for specific reactions. Among these systems interlocked architectures such as rotaxanes and catenanes make a significant contribution.
