RESUMO
Application of physical pressure to a ferromagnetic bisdiselenazolyl radical leads to a decrease in pi-stack slippage. Initially, this leads to an increase in the ferromagnetic ordering temperature T(C), which reaches a maximum of 21 K near 1 GPa. At higher pressures, as the pi-stacks become more nearly superimposed, the value of T(C) diminishes.
RESUMO
Synthetic methods have been developed to generate the complete series of resonance-stabilized heterocyclic thia/selenazyl radicals 1a-4a. X-ray crystallographic studies confirm that all four radicals are isostructural, belonging to the tetragonal space group P42(1)m. The crystal structures consist of slipped pi-stack arrays of undimerized radicals packed about 4 centers running along the z direction, an arrangement which gives rise to a complex lattice-wide network of close intermolecular E2---E2' contacts. Variable temperature conductivity (sigma) measurements reveal an increase in conductivity with increasing selenium content, particularly so when selenium occupies the E2 position, with sigma(300 K) reaching a maximum (for E1 = E2 = Se) of 3.0 x 10(-4) S cm(-1). Thermal activation energies E(act) follow a similar profile, decreasing with increasing selenium content along the series 1a (0.43 eV), 3a (0.31 eV), 2a (0.27 eV), 4a (0.19 eV). Variable temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate that all four radicals exhibit S = 1/2 Curie-Weiss behavior over the temperature range 20-300 K. At lower temperatures, the three selenium-based radicals display magnetic ordering. Radical 3a, with selenium positioned at the E1 site, undergoes a phase transition at 14 K to a weakly spin-canted (phi = 0.010 degrees) antiferromagnetic state. By contrast, radicals 2a and 4a, which both possess selenium in the E2 position, order ferromagnetically, with Curie temperatures of T(c) = 12.8 and 17.0 K, respectively. The coercive fields H(c) at 2 K of 2a (250 Oe) and 4a (1370 Oe) are much larger than those seen in conventional light atom organic ferromagnets. The transport properties of the entire series 1a-4a are discussed in the light of Extended Hückel Theory band structure calculations.
RESUMO
A series of five isostructural bisthiaselenazolyl radicals 2 have been prepared and characterized by X-ray crystallography. The crystal structures, all belonging to the tetragonal space group P42(1)m, consist of slipped pi-stack arrays of undimerized radicals packed about 4 centers running along the z-direction, an arrangement which gives rise to a complex lattice-wide network of close intermolecular Se---Se' contacts. Variations in R1 (Et, Pr, CH2CF3) with R2 = Cl lead to significant changes in the degree of slippage of the pi-stacks and hence the proximity of the Se---Se' interactions. By contrast, variations in R2 (Cl, Br, Me) with R1 = Et induce very little change in either the degree of slippage or the intermolecular contacts. Variable-temperature conductivity (sigma) measurements show relatively constant values for the conductivity sigma(300 K) (10(-5)-10(-4) S cm(-1)) and thermal activation energy E(act) (0.27-0.31 eV). Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate that radicals 2b and 2c (R1 = Pr, CH2CF3; R2 = Cl) behave as weakly antiferromagnetically coupled Curie-Weiss paramagnets, but in 2a, 2d and 2e (R1 = Et; R2 = Cl, Me, Br) ferromagnetic ordering is observed, with T(c) values of 12.8 (R2 = Cl), 13.6 (R2 = Me), and 14.1 K (R2 = Br). The origin of the dramatically different magnetic behavior across the series has been explored in terms of a direct through-space mechanism by means of DFT calculations on individual pairwise exchange energies. These indicate that antiferromagnetic exchange between radicals along the pi-stacks increases with pi-stack slippage.
RESUMO
A pair of isostructural bis-selenathiazolyl and bis-diselenazolyl radical conductors display weak (spin-canted) ferromagnetism with Tc values of 18 K and 27 K respectively.
RESUMO
The methoxy-substituted bis-1,2,3-dithiazolyl radical 4a thermally decomposes to afford the zwitterionic bis-1,2,3-dithiazolopyridone 5a; EPR spectroscopic analysis indicates a rearrangement of the radical prior to loss of the methyl group.

At temperatures below 5 K the field dependence of the magnetization of the pi-stacked bis-dithiazolyl radical 1 (R(1) = Me, R(2) = H) is consistent with metamagnetic behavior.
RESUMO
An efficient and versatile synthetic route to resonance stabilized bisselenathiazolyl and bisdiselenazolyl radicals 3 and 4 is described. Structural analysis of 3 and 4 confirm that lattice and pi-delocalization energies are sufficient to offset solid-state dimerization of the radicals and that the two selenium-containing radicals are isostructural with the all-sulfur based system 1. Variable temperature conductivity measurements indicate that sequential replacement of sulfur by selenium leads to a progressive increase in conductivity and reduction in thermal activation energy.
