2,3,5,6-Tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (Cat No.:L041629) is a strong electron acceptor widely used in organic electronics and materials science. This derivative of tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) features four fluorine atoms on the quinodimethane core and four cyano groups, enhancing its electron-withdrawing ability. F₄-TCNQ plays a crucial role in doping organic semiconductors, improving electrical conductivity in materials like polythiophenes and other conjugated polymers. Its planar structure and high electron affinity facilitate charge transfer complex formation. It is also employed in molecular electronics, organic photovoltaics, and thin-film transistors for advanced optoelectronic applications.
