The title complexes μ-(ttftt)-[M(phen)]2 (M＝MnII, FeII, CoII, NiII, CuII, ZnII) were synthesized by using 2,3,6,7-tetrakis(2’-cyanoethylthio)tetrathiafulvalene tetrathiolate as the precursor of bridge ligand. The structure and properties were characterized by using elemental analysis, NMR, IR, UV-Vis spectra, florescence spectra, mole electrical conductivities and quantum chemistry theoretical calculation. The electrochemical oxy-reduction and electrocatalysis for the Li/SOCl2 cell was studied, discovering that the increases of voltage and capacity of the cell containing the μ-(ttftt)-[Fe(phen)]2 are 133 mV and 218 mAh at 25 ℃ by current density 25 mA/cm2.

Key words: tetrathiafulvalene tetrathiolate, metal 1,10-phenanthroline, synthesis, electrocatalysis, quantum chemistry calculation
