A stable oxoverdazyl free radical: Structural and magnetic characterization
Abstract The structure and magnetic properties (susceptibility and ESR) of the stable oxoverdazyl free radical 6-(4-acetamidophenyl)-1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2,4-dimethyl-1,2,4,5-tetrazin-3(2H)-one are presented. The crystal structure consists of chains of parallel planar molecules running along the b-axis. These chains are formed by dimers with a ring-over-bond overlap and a significant offset between dimers, although with similar inter- and intradimer distances. The susceptibility measurements show that this compound is an S = 1/2 paramagnet with weak antiferromagnetic interactions. The magnetic susceptibility can be very well reproduced with an antiferromagnetic regular chain model with g = 2.…
Tuning the Basicity of Synergic Bimetallic Reagents: Switching the Regioselectivity of the Direct Dimetalation of Toluene from 2,5‐ to 3,5‐Positions
Meta-meta metalation: Remarkably, toluene can be directly dimanganated or dimagnesiated at the 3,5-positions using bimetallic bases with active Me3SiCH2 ligands (see scheme, blue). In contrast, n-butyl ligands lead to 2,5-metalation (red). tmp=2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide.
Assessing the reactivity of sodium alkyl-magnesiates towards quinoxaline : single electron transfer (SET) vs. nucleophilic alkylation processes
By exploring the reactivity of sodium butyl-magnesiate (1) supported by the bulky chelating silyl(bisamido) ligand {Ph2Si(NAr*)2}(2-) (Ar* = 2,6-iPr2-C6H3) towards Quinoxaline (Qx), the ability of this bimetallic system to effectively promote SET processes has been disclosed. Thus 1 executes the single-electron reduction of Qx affording complex (2) whose structure in the solid state contains two quinaxolyl radical anions Qx˙ stabilised within a dimeric magnesiate framework. Combining multinuclear NMR and EPR measurements with DFT calculations, new insights into the constitution of 2 in solution and its magnetic behaviour have been gained. Further evidence on the SET reactivity of 1 was foun…
