Preparation of new organic composites by direct solid-solid charge-transfer reaction between bis(ethylenedioxy)tetrathiafulvalene (BO) and iodine is described. We present also de electrical conductivity investigation of composites: (BO)(x)/I, where 0.5 < x < 1.5. In the best case, corresponding to x = 1, a metallic behaviour is observed down to 200 K prior to any annealing stage with a room temperature conductivity as high as 12.8 S cm(-1).
