, whose p-donor molecules, (ethylenedioxo)-carbamoyltetrathiafulvalene and (ethylenedithio)-carbamoyltetrathiafulvalene, respectively, differ solely by the nature of the chalcogen atoms in their outer ethylene dichalcogeno bridge, yet form very different charge-transfer complexes with the same p-acceptor. ½EDO-TTF-CONH dþ 2 2 ½TCNQF dÀ 4 2 is a diamagnetic insulating ionic salt with a threedimensional rock-salt-type structure based on discrete dimers while in the semi-conducting mixed-valence complex, ½EDT-TTF-CONH 2 dþ 2 ½TCNQF dÀ 4 ; the mixed-valence dimers aggregate into infinite chains interspersed within parallel rows of non-interacting radical anions. It is shown how the robust and adaptable supramolecular amide hydrogen bond tweezers-like motifs common to the two solids simply comply to the 3-to-1 dimensionality reduction upon substitution of O for S. # 2002 Elsevier Science (USA)
