Synthesis and EPR spectral characterization of dinitroxide biradicals}, volume={64}, ISSN={["0022-3263"]}, DOI={10.1021/jo990061j}, abstractNote={Several trimethylenemethane-type (TMM-type) dinitroxide biradicals have been prepared that differ in tert-butylaminoxylphenyl ring torsion angles by virtue of different steric demands of their “spin-protecting groups”. In addition, the synthesis of a TMM-type dinitroxide having a planar π-system is reported. The synthetic route employed for the planar TMM-type biradical is general and should therefore expand the utility of TMM-type biradicals that are susceptible to bond torsions that attenuate exchange coupling. The compounds presented are designed to be effective to map out J-coupling/conformation space in TMM-type biradicals. EPR spectroscopic parameters (hfcc and D-values) were compared to determine if their values reflected differences in conformation in the series of biradicals. Interestingly, neither N- nor H-hfcc varied within our series of biradicals/monoradicals in a regular fashion, indicating that there is no apparent relationship between N- or H-hfcc and conformation (as judged by molecular m...}, number={12}, journal={JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY}, author={Shultz, DA and Boal, AK and Lee, H and Farmer, GT}, year={1999}, month={Jun}, pages={4386–4396} } @article{shultz_farmer_1998, title={Synthesis and characterization of a nitroxide-semiquinone biradical}, volume={63}, ISSN={["0022-3263"]}, DOI={10.1021/jo980562p}, abstractNote={The synthesis and characterization of an anion biradical, 1(-)(*)(*), composed of semiquinone and nitroxide functionalities is described. The biradical was prepared by reduction of the nitroxide-orthoquinone precursor using both electrochemical and chemical methods. The zero-field-splitting parameter, |D/hc|, for 1(-)(*)(*) is consistent with the proposed electronic structure, based on a comparison to |D/hc| of related biradicals. Finally, the results of variable-temperature EPR spectroscopy are in agreement with ferromagnetic (high-spin) coupling of the two unpaired electrons through the m-phenylene group.}, number={18}, journal={JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY}, author={Shultz, DA and Farmer, GT}, year={1998}, month={Sep}, pages={6254–6257} } @article{shultz_boal_farmer_1998, title={Synthesis of bis(semiquinone)s and their electrochemical and electron paramagnetic resonance spectral characterization}, volume={63}, ISSN={["0022-3263"]}, DOI={10.1021/jo981597s}, abstractNote={The syntheses of three new bis(semiquinone)s (2••2-, 3••2-, and 5••2-) linked through carbon−carbon double bonds in a geminal fashion (2••2- and 3••2-), and through an sp3 carbon (5••2-), are presented, as well as the results of variable-temperature EPR (VT-EPR) spectroscopy on these biradicals and two previously reported bis(semiquinone)s, 1••2- and 4••2-. We suggest that the potential difference in redox couples associated with a biradical is useful for qualitatively assessing changes in the exchange parameter within an isostructural series. The zero-field-splitting parameters for 1••2-−5••2- are consistent with their electronic structures:  biradicals 1••2-−3••2- which have conjugating groups attached to the semiquinone rings have D-values less than 5••2-, a bis(semiquinone) that lacks such a conjugating group. Also, the D-value of 3••2- is significantly less than those of 1••2- and 2••2-, in agreement with larger interelectron separation in 3••2-, a biradical with quinone-methide π-system delocalizati...}, number={25}, journal={JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY}, author={Shultz, DA and Boal, AK and Farmer, GT}, year={1998}, month={Dec}, pages={9462–9469} } @article{shultz_boal_farmer_1997, title={The biradical, bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-phenoxyl)methyleneadamantane, exhibits matrix-dependent EPR spectra suggesting rotamer bistability with differential exchange coupling}, volume={119}, ISSN={["0002-7863"]}, DOI={10.1021/ja964330o}, abstractNote={ADVERTISEMENT RETURN TO ISSUEPREVCommunicationNEXTThe Biradical, Bis(3,5-di- tert-butyl-4-phenoxyl)methyleneadamantane, Exhibits Matrix-Dependent EPR Spectra Suggesting Rotamer Bistability with Differential Exchange CouplingDavid A.
