The various isomers including stable structures, carbenes, and diradicals on the C3H4 surface have been investigated. The two carbenes propenylidene and cyclopropylidene have been found to have singlet ground states. Vinylmethylene is predicted to have a triplet ground state with a planar diradical type of structure. The syn and anti forms of this state are degenerate. This is in agreement with the observation of two triplet states in the electron spin resonance (ESR ) spectra. The π electrons are found to be delocalized over the three carbons. The singlet diradical structures are found to be more stable than the carbene structures, which retain the CH2 (DOUBLE BOND) CH allylic structures. The orbital compositions of the frontier orbitals of all systems have been determined to examine the nature of these orbitals. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.  相似文献

Although diradicals and azaacenes have been greatly attractive in fundamental chemistry and functional materials, the isolable diradical dianions of azaacenes are still unknown. Herein, we describe the first isolation of pyrene-fused azaacene diradical dianion salts [(18-c-6)K(THF)2]+[(18-c-6)K]+⋅ 1 2−.. and [(18-c-6)K(THF)]2+⋅ 2 2−.. by reduction of the neutral pyrene-fused azaacene derivatives 1 and 2 with excess potassium graphite in THF in the presence of 18-crown-6. Their electronic structures were investigated by various experiments, in conjunction with theoretical calculations. It was found that both dianions are open-shell singlets in the ground state and their triplet states are thermally readily accessible owing to the small singlet–triplet energy gap. This work provides the first examples of crystalline diradical dianions of azaacenes with considerable diradical character.  相似文献

A kinetically-stabilized nitrogen-doped triangulene cation derivative has been synthesized and isolated as the stable diradical with a triplet ground state that exhibits near-infrared emission. As was the case for a triangulene derivative we previously synthesized, the triplet ground state with a large singlet-triplet energy gap was experimentally confirmed by magnetic measurements. In contrast to the triangulene derivative, the nitrogen-doped triangulene cation derivative is highly stable even in solution under air and exhibits near-infrared absorption and emission because the alternancy symmetry of triangulene is broken by the nitrogen cation. Breaking the alternancy symmetry of triplet alternant hydrocarbon diradicals by a nitrogen cation would therefore be an effective strategy to create stable diradicals possessing magnetic properties similar to the parent hydrocarbons but with different electrochemical and photophysical properties.  相似文献

Although diradicals and azaacenes have been greatly attractive in fundamental chemistry and functional materials, the isolable diradical dianions of azaacenes are still unknown. Herein, we describe the first isolation of pyrene‐fused azaacene diradical dianion salts [(18‐c‐6)K(THF)2]+[(18‐c‐6)K]+? 1 2?.. and [(18‐c‐6)K(THF)]2+? 2 2?.. by reduction of the neutral pyrene‐fused azaacene derivatives 1 and 2 with excess potassium graphite in THF in the presence of 18‐crown‐6. Their electronic structures were investigated by various experiments, in conjunction with theoretical calculations. It was found that both dianions are open‐shell singlets in the ground state and their triplet states are thermally readily accessible owing to the small singlet–triplet energy gap.

Triplet diradicals have attracted tremendous attention due to their promising application in organic spintronics, organic magnets and spin filters. However, very few examples of triplet diradicals with singlet–triplet energy gaps (ΔEST) over 0.59 kcal mol−1 (298 K) have been reported to date. In this work, we first proved that the dianion of 2,7-di-tert-butyl-pyrene-4,5,9,10-tetraone (2,7-tBu2-PTO) was a triplet ground state diradical in the magnesium complex 1 with a singlet–triplet energy gap ΔEST = 0.94 kcal mol−1 (473 K). This is a rare example of stable diradicals with singlet–triplet energy gaps exceeding the thermal energy at room temperature (298 K). Moreover, the iron analog 2 containing the 2,7-tBu2-PTO diradical dianion was isolated, which was the first single-molecule magnet bridged by a diradical dianion. When 2 was doubly reduced to the dianion salt 2K2, single-molecule magnetism was switched off, highlighting the importance of diradicals in single-molecule magnetism.

We report a triplet diradical dianion in magnesium complex with ΔEST = 0.94 kcal mol−1 (473 K). Its iron analog is the first single-molecule magnet bridged by a diradical dianion, and the SMM property is switched off through two-electron reduction.  相似文献

Localized singlet diradicals (biradicals) are key intermediates in chemical reactions involving homolytic bond-cleavage and formation processes. The molecular structure and electronic structure had been historically elusive due to the short-lived character of the reactive intermediates. In the last 15 years, a significant development of singlet diradical chemistry was achieved after the pioneering findings of long-lived singlet diradicals. In this tutorial review, the recent development of localized singlet diradical chemistry is summarized and discussed. The following subjects are included (a) the mechanism by which the ground state spin-multiplicity of localized 1,3-diradicals is controlled; (b) the substituent and heteroatom effect on the most stable electronic configuration of the singlet 1,3-diradicals, type-1 versus type-2; (c) the molecular design for the long-lived singlet ground state diradicals; (d) the generation and characterization of the singlet diradicals; and (e) the future prospects.  相似文献

Nitroxide diradicals, in which nitroxides are annelated to m-phenylene forming tricyclic benzobisoxazine-like structures, have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography, magnetic resonance (EPR and 1H NMR) spectroscopy, as well as magnetic studies in solution and in solid state. For the octamethyl derivative of benzobisoxazine nitroxide diradical, the conformationally constrained nitroxide moieties are coplanar with the m-phenylene, leading to large values of 2J (2J/k > 200 K in solution and 2J/k > 300 K in the solid state). For the diradical, in which all ortho and para positions of the m-phenylene are sterically shielded, distortion of the nitroxide moieties from coplanarity is moderate, such that the singlet-triplet gaps remain large in both solution (2J/k > 200 K) and the solid state (2J/k approximately 400-800 K), though an onset of thermal depopulation of the triplet ground state is detectable near room temperature. These diradicals have robust triplet ground states with strong ferromagnetic coupling and good stability at ambient conditions. Magnetic behavior of the nitroxide diradicals at low temperature is best fit to the model of one-dimensional S = 1 Heisenberg chains with intrachain antiferromagnetic coupling. The antiferromagnetic coupling between the S = 1 diradicals may be associated with the methyl nitroxide C-H- - -O contacts, including nonclassical hydrogen bonds. These unprecedented organic S = 1 antiferromagnetic chains are highly isotropic, compared to those of the extensively studied Ni(II)-based chains.  相似文献

It is very challenging to obtain stable room-temperature luminescent open-shell singlet diradicals. Herein we report the first stable Müller's hydrocarbon TTM-PhTTM with luminescent properties. Variable-temperature electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy measurements and theoretical calculations show that TTM-PhTTM has an open-shell singlet ground state with a diradical character of 90 %. Because of a small singlet-triplet energy gap, the open-shell singlet ground state can be thermally excited to a triplet state. TTM-PhTTM shows room-temperature deep-red emission in various solutions. Unusually high stability of TTM-PhTTM was also observed owing to effective steric hindrance and spin delocalization. Our results are beneficial to the rational design and discovery of more stable luminescent diradical materials.  相似文献

Intermediate diradicals which occur in the Paterno–Büchi photocycloaddition and in the Norrish type I photoreactions have been calculated taking into account the spin–orbit coupling (SOC) between the singlet (S) and triplet (T) states. Reaction paths for the photocycloaddition of formaldehyde to ethene and the diradical products of the α-cleavage of cyclohexanone have been optimized by the MNDO CI method for a number of different singlet and triplet states. SOC integrals are calculated by an effective one-electron approximation. Intermediate diradicals in the Paterno–Büchi reaction and the SOC effects are also studied ab initio with CAS SCF geometry optimization in a TZV basis set. Both methods predict a large SOC matrix element between the S and T states in the course of the C–C attack, while the SOC integral is two orders of magnitude smaller for the diradical produced in the C–O attack. In the Norrish type I photoreaction the oxygen atom also produces some nonzero contribution to the SOC integral which governs intersystem crossing in a ·C–C· diradical. For the diradicals produced by the α-cleavage of cyclohexanone a vibronic interaction is responsible for the SOC mixing between the lowest S and T states. The importance of one-center versus two-center SOC contributions in diradicals is briefly discussed.  相似文献

UB3LYP/6-31g* calculations have been performed on a series of para-substituted 2,2-difluoro-1,3-diphenylcyclopentane-1,3-diyls (4). The singlet is computed to be the ground state for each of the diradicals, regardless of the nature of the para substituents, which range from strongly pi-electron-donating (amino) to strongly pi-electron-withdrawing (nitro). In the symmetrically para-disubstituted diradicals, the size of the singlet-triplet energy gap (Delta E(ST)) increases with the pi-electron-donating ability of the substituents, but in the unsymmetrically substituted diradicals, large values of Delta E(ST) are calculated even when one of the substituents is a pi electron acceptor. The origins of the competitive and cooperative substituent effects, predicted for diradical 4, are discussed in light of the calculated effects of the same substituents on the singlet and triplet states of diradical 6, which lacks the geminal fluorines at C-2 that are present in 4.  相似文献

A series of bis[N,N‐di‐(4‐methoxylphenyl)amino]arene dications 1 2+– 3 2+ have been synthesized and characterized. Their electronic structures were investigated by various experiments assisted by theoretical calculations. It was found that they are singlets in the ground state and that their diradical character is dependent on the bridging moiety. 3 2+ has a smaller singlet–triplet energy gap and its excited triplet state is thermally readily accessible. The work provides a nitrogen analogue of Thiele’s hydrocarbon with considerable diradical character.  相似文献

A low temperature method, in which the progress of the oxidation of secondary diarylamines with DMDO at low temperatures is monitored by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR and NMR) and magnetic studies by a Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID), is developed for preparation of the first m-phenylene based diarylnitroxide diradical. EPR spectroscopy and magnetic studies (SQUID) indicate that the diradical in the dichloromethane matrix predominantly adopts anticonformation ( 2A-anti) and possesses triplet ground state. Similar oxidation experiments for conformationally constrained aza[1 4]metacyclophane provide evidence for the formation of small amounts of the corresponding diarylnitroxide diradical. Both diarylnitroxide diradicals could only be detected at low temperatures (-80 degrees C and below).  相似文献

Two bis(triarylamine) diradical dication salts 12+ 2[Al(ORF)4]? and 22+ 2[Al(ORF)4]? bridged with an orthogonal oriented bisanthrancene motif were synthesized. Their solid state and electronic structures were investigated by various experimental approaches in conjunction with theoretical calculations. Superconducting quantum interference device measurements and density functional theory calculations reveal that both of 12+ and 22+ feature open‐shell singlet ground states with rather small singlet‐triplet energy gaps; thus, they can be regarded as nearly pure diradicals (biradicals). Their diradical characters are enhanced by the orthogonal configuration of the bisanthrancene moiety which demonstrates the importance of the geometry of bridging units in turning the electronic structures of bis(triarylamine) dications.  相似文献

Two novel boron-centered diradicals based on dimesitylpyridine borane ( 1 ) were synthesized by the self-assembling of the corresponding radical sodium and potassium salts, respectively. The sodium diradical was obtained by re-dissolving the crystals of the radical salt 1Na in toluene, while the potassium diradical was directly obtained by the reduction of 1 with potassium in THF. The diradicals could be converted back to their radical anions in THF solution, forming a reversible process. EPR spectroscopy and SQUID measurements, together with theoretical calculations, show that the diradicals have singlet ground states with excited triplet states. Their singlet–triplet energy gaps are tunable with metals.  相似文献

This work explores the electronic structure as well as the reactivity of singlet diradicals, making use of multistate density functional theory (MSDFT). In particular, we show that a minimal active space of two electrons in two orbitals is adequate to treat the relative energies of the singlet and triplet adiabatic ground state as well as the first singlet excited state in many cases. This is plausible because dynamic correlation is included in the first place in the optimization of orbitals in each determinant state via block-localized Kohn–Sham density functional theory. In addition, molecular fragment, i.e., block-localized Kohn–Sham orbitals, are optimized separately for each determinant, providing a variational diabatic representation of valence bond-like states, which are subsequently used in nonorthogonal state interactions (NOSIs). The computational procedure and its performance are illustrated on some prototypical diradical species. It is shown that NOSI calculations in MSDFT can be used to model bond dissociation and hydrogen-atom transfer reactions, employing a minimal number of configuration state functions as the basis states. For p- and s-types of diradicals, the closed-shell diradicals are found to be more reactive than the open-shell ones due to a larger diabatic coupling with the final product state. Such a diabatic representation may be useful to define reaction coordinates for electron transfer, proton transfer and coupled electron and proton transfer reactions in condensed-phase simulations.  相似文献

Trimethylenemethane (TMM) diradical is the simplest non‐Kekulé non‐disjoint molecule with the triplet ground state (ΔEST=+16.1 kcal mol?1) and is extremely reactive. It is a challenge to design and synthesize a stable TMM diradical with key properties, such as actual aliphatic TMM diradical centers and the triplet ground state with a large positive ΔEST value, since such species provide detailed information on the electronic structure of TMM diradical. Herein we report a TMM derivative, in which the TMM segment is fused with three NiII meso‐triarylporphyrins, that satisfies the above criteria. The diradical shows delocalized spin density on the propeller‐like porphyrin π‐network and the triplet ground state owing to the strong ferromagnetic interaction. Despite the apparent TMM structure, the diradical can be handled under ambient conditions and can be stored for months in the solid state, thus allowing its X‐ray diffraction structural analysis.  相似文献

A modular approach for the synthesis of isolable crystalline Schlenk hydrocarbon diradicals from m-phenylene bridged electron-rich bis-triazaalkenes as synthons is reported. EPR spectroscopy confirms their diradical nature and triplet electronic structure by revealing a half-field signal. A computational analysis confirms the triplet state to be the ground state. As a proof-of-principle for the modular methodology, the 4,6-dimethyl-m-phenylene was further utilized as a coupling unit between two alkene motifs. The steric conjunction of the 4,6-dimethyl groups substantially twists the substituents at the nonbonding electron bearing centers relative to the central coupling m-phenylene motif. As a result, the spin delocalization is decreased and the exchange coupling between the two unpaired spins, hence, significantly reduced. Notably, 108 years after Schlenk's m-phenylene-bis(diphenylmethyl) synthesis as a diradical, for the first time we were able to isolate its derivative with the same spacer, i.e. m-phenylene, between two radical centers in a crystalline form.  相似文献

Hydrocarbon diradical 1, a new stable, 3-fold symmetric analogue of trimethylenemethane (TMM) with no heteroatom perturbation, is prepared and studied. Such diradicals should provide new building blocks for high-spin hydrocarbon polyradicals with very strong net ferromagnetic coupling. Magnetic studies (SQUID) and EPR spectroscopy indicate that 1 in tetrahydrofuran-d8 (THF-d8) possesses a triplet (S = 1) ground state, with strong ferromagnetic coupling. After annealing at room temperature, the EPR spectra of 1 (approximately 0.02 M in frozen THF-d8) consist of a single narrow resonance (deltaH(pp) < 1 G), and intermolecular antiferromagnetic coupling is increased by 1 order of magnitude. This behavior is consistent with the presence of exchange narrowing, thus suggesting aggregation of 1 in THF-d8. Blue solutions of 1 in THF-d8 possess a strong UV-vis absorption band at lambda(max) approximately 640 nm. Diradical 1 in THF-d8 is stable (or persistent) at room temperature, with no detectable decomposition for at least 2 days.  相似文献

Density functional calculations on the experimentally unknown neutral analogue of Roussin's red salt anion, namely Fe(2)(NO)(4)S(2), predict ground state structures with diradical character. The presence of a reactive diradical ground state with unpaired electrons for the neutral Fe(2)(NO)(4)S(2) system could explain why it has not yet been synthesized.  相似文献
