Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to expand the study on "hydrogen-bond-unit-based organic conductors", which are a new type of organic conductors originally developed by us, in this project, we have designed and synthesized their new component molecules with an extended pi-conjugated system and explored novel organic conductors based on them. As a result, interesting analogue systems, whose crystal structure, hydrogen bonds, and electronic structure are fundamentally different from those of the parent system, were successfully obtained, providing new important information about the interplay between proton and electron in this type of organic conductors.
