Charge-transfer (CT) dynamics of triamterene with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-p-benzoquinone acceptor: A n → π* model CT complex generated by liquid- and solid-state reactions

Since it was first described in 1969 by Robert Mulliken, the charge-transfer (CT) chemical reaction has received unparalleled attention and inspired extensive research efforts. This is because CT yields new charge-transfer complexes (CTCs) with unique physical, biological, and chemical characteristics that render them beneficial to academia, material science, medicine, and pharmacology. The formation of CTCs by the liquid-state reaction is...
