Abstract: Three-dimensional quantitative structure-property relationship(3D-QSPR) and comparative molecular field analysis(CoMFA) have been applied to elucidating the correlation of the structures of tetrahydrocarbonthia-tetrathiafulvalenes(TTF) and their electrochemical properties. Six new π-donor TTFmolecules are prepared and their electrochemical properties have also been investigated by cyclic voltammogram. CoMFAresulted in a quantitative description of major steric and electrostatic field effects, and gave significant new insights to the factors governing electrochemical properties. The model was used to predict the half-wave potentials of TTFwith satisfactory results.

Key words: Tetrahydrocarbonthia-tetrathiafulvalenes, Three-dimensional quantitative structure-property relationship, Cyclic voltammetry
