The title compound, C₃₁H₁₈F₆S₂, is a molecular switch based on dithienylperfluorocyclopentene. The molecule possesses pseudo-C₂ symmetry and has the open form of the switch. There are a number of intramolecular C-H...F hydrogen bonds, but in the crystal structure there are no interactions between symmetry-related molecules.

The thoughful construction of molecular switches has led to a gamut of supramolecular systems that can be used in molecular electronics. These include molecules based on thienylethenes, spiropyrans, fulgides, dithienylphenanthrolines, and diazafluorenes. This article reviews the recent developments made in the synthesis and characterization of all these systems, thereby allowing a comparative...
