Communication: The high substituent sensitivity of the electrical conductivity of copper DCNQI radical anion salts (see figure) is atributed to the fact that the stacks of copper atoms and bridging DCNQI ligands are covalently clamped together within the frame work of a sevenfold interpenetrating super diamond architecture. This observation should influence more quantitative approaches to explaining and modeling the conductivity behaviour of the Cu(DCNQI) 2 salts.
