Abstract: | structure: see text] To confirm whether high-spin species can be generated as a result of ferromagnetic interaction between the 3d spin of metal ions and the 2p spins of triplet carbene through the pyridyl group located remote from the carbene center, 2,6-dibromo-4-(3- and 4-pyridyl)phenyl](4-tert-butyl-2,6-dimethylphenyl)diazomethanes were prepared and the corresponding carbenes were generated either in the absence or presence of Cu(hfac)2. These were characterized by ESR and UV/vis in a matrix at low temperature, and by laser flash photolysis in solution at room temperature. These studies indicated that although both carbenes generated a fairly stable complex with copper ions, the 4-pyridyl isomer formed a high-spin species as a result of ferromagnetic interaction between the 3d spin of metal ions and the 2p spins of triplet carbene. Such an interaction in the corresponding 3-isomer is likely to be antiferromagnetic. This is further confirmed by magnetic measurements using a Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID). The results demonstrate that extension of this method will enable stable high-spin polycarbenes to be obtained. |
