N ‐[2,3‐Bis(dimethylamino)cyclopropenylio]‐ and N ‐(tetramethylamidinio)pyridinium salts (trifluoromethanesulphonates and tetrafluoroborates) form 1:1 and 1:2 charge‐transfer complexes with the pentakis(methoxycarbonyl)cyclopentadienide anion. The x‐ray crystal structures of 1‐[2,3‐bis(dimethylamino)cyclopropenylio] pyridinium pentakis(methoxycarbonyl)cyclopentadienide tetrafluoroborate hydrate and of 1‐[2,3‐bis(dimethylamino)cyclopropenylio] pyridinium bis[pentakis(methoxycarbonyl)cyclopentadienide] were determined. In constrast, the tetra‐cyano‐ p ‐quinodimethane (TCNQ) radical anion reacts with the first‐mentioned salts by CC bond formation to give novel dicationic salts. Thereby, the radical anion attacks the pyridinium γ‐position of the N ‐(tetramethylamidinio)‐pyridinium dication, but the three‐membered ring of the N ‐[2,3‐bis(dimethylamino)cyclopropenylio] pyridinium system.
