Abstract: | Abstract The HCl and DCl salts of pheny1-4-pyridyldiazomethane were prepared and irradiated at 6 K to generate the carbenes. Their ESR spectra indicated presence of plural triplet carbenes with slightly-different zero-field splitting constants. Besides the triplet species, we found a quintet species whose signal intensity decreases with increasing temperature. The quintet spin state was concluded to be a ground state which was produced by an intermolecular ferromagnetic interaction of the triplet carbenes. The ferromagnetic interaction would be explained by the McConnell mechanism, judging from the crystal structure of the HCl salt of phenyl-4-pyridylketone. |
