Abstract

AbstractWe describe the synthesis and characterisation of the first of a new class of soluble ladder oligomeric thermoelectric material based on previously unutilised ethene-1,1,2,2-tetrasulfonic acid. Reaction of Ba(OH)2 and propionic acid at a 1:1 stoichiometry leads to the formation of the previously unrecognised soluble [Ba(OH)(O2CEt)]⋅H2O. The latter when used to hydrolyse 1,3,4,6-tetrathiapentalene-2,5-dione (TPD), in the presence of NiCl2, forms a new material whose elemental composition is in accord with the formula [(EtCO2Ba)4Ni8{(O3S)2C = C(SO3)2}5]⋅22H2O (4). Compound 4 can be pressed into pellets, drop-cast as DMSO solutions or ink-jet printed (down to sub-mm resolutions). While its room temperature thermoelectric properties are modest (σmax 0.04 S cm−1 and Seebeck coefficient, αmax − 25.8 μV K−1) we introduce a versatile new oligomeric material that opens new possible synthetic routes for n-type thermoelectrics.
