Abstract

This paper summarizes the recent advance in utilizing conjugated radical cation dimerization (CRCD) for constructing new unimolecular, such as foldamers, and supramolecular ordered structures, such as three-dimensional supramolecular polymers and two-dimensional supramolecular organic framework. Particularly, the stacking or dimerization of tetrathiafulvalene and 4,4′-dipyridium subunits has been highlighted, and the approaches for enhancing the stability of their radical cation dimers have been discussed.
