Abstract:
Unique crystal structures containing two kinds of crossed charge-transfer (CT) columns are demonstrated by cocrystals consisting of ion pairs of acceptors of methyl viologen and anthraquinone disulfonate derivatives and a donor, hydroquinone, mediated by electrostatic and donor-acceptor (DA) interactions.
