Abstract

Solid-solid phase interconversion was observed in an organic conductor based on a hydrogen-bonded (H-bonded) TTF (tetrathiafulvalene) molecular unit, in which the π-stacked molecular arrangement and physical properties were dynamically changed with unexpected transformation of the H-bond unit between the planar and bent forms.
