Author interpretations and caveats

Paraphrased for this database from the authors’ stated interpretations — never quoted verbatim — and kept separate from reported measurements.

Application RelevanceSupport assessment: High

All three Tb/Er/Gd Ln-m-TTFTB frameworks show similar redox activity with two reversible one-electron TTF-based processes at about 0.21 and 0.48 V vs Fc/Fc+.

Caveat: Potentials are reported as approximate around-values from text; peak positions for individual metals are not tabulated.

OtherSupport assessment: Medium

Dy-m-TTFTB and Er-m-TTFTB show slow relaxation of magnetisation/low-temperature magnetic features, whereas Tb-m-TTFTB shows no chi'' ac signal.

Caveat: No out-of-phase peak above 1.8-2 K is observed up to 999 Hz, so energy barriers are not extracted.

Structure Property LinkSupport assessment: High

The meta configuration of m-H4TTFTB leads the Ln-m-TTFTB frameworks to dense stacking and scarce/almost no porosity compared with porous Ln-TTFTB analogues.

Caveat: No first-hand gas adsorption isotherm or BET surface area is reported for the three new Tb/Er/Gd frameworks; porosity conclusion is structural/textual.

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: Medium

The lower conducting performance of Ln-m-TTFTB is attributed to lack of band formation or poor electron transfer, despite short TTF contacts and similar band gaps to the ligand.

Caveat: Mechanistic statement is interpretive; no mobility or band-structure measurement is provided.

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: Medium

The room-temperature single-crystal conductivities are about ten times the reported powder-state Ln-TTFTB series, attributed to lower contact resistance in single-crystal measurements.

Caveat: Comparator is literature/powder-state and geometry differs; attribution to contact resistance is the authors' interpretation.
