• solid state properties [35][36][37]. Bis(vinylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (BVDT-TTF) 4 (R = Ph, 4-CH3OC6H4, 4-BrC6H4, 4-CH3C6H4, 4-O2NC6H4, 2-thienyl) is a BEDT-TTF analogue possessing π-bonds with aromatic groups on the outer rings (Figure 1) [26][38][39][40][41]. Since BEDT-TTF has two ethylene units
