Compounds of the type of 2-(4'-nitrobenzoyl)methylene-3-ethylbenzothiazoline (I) and 2-bis-(p-nitrobenzoyl)methylene-3-ethylbenzothiazoline (II) were studied polarographically and by ESR spectroscopy to obtain informations about their electrochemical and follow-up reactions and their conformation. Whereas with compounds of the type I the conjugation in their molecules is preserved, with type II the coplanarity of the molecules is disturbed, which is manifested in the values of the splitting constants of the ESR spectra and a slow electron transfer between both nitrophenyl substituents. These conclusions are supported by NMR spectroscopic studies.

The 4-nitrobenzophenone radical anion prepared by electrolysis was studied by ESR spectroscopy. On the basis of the interpretation of ESR spectra, the conformation of this system was estimated. The effect of the concentration of supporting electrolyte and of the presence of a proton-donor agent (C2H5OH) was examined. It is assumed that changes in hyperfine splitting constants are caused by association.

It has been found that the decay in dimethylformamide and dimethylformamide-water mixtures of radical anions in five of the investigated 5-nitrofurans is governed by a second-order reaction. Only the decay of the radical anion generated from 5-nitro-2-furfural III may be described by an equation including parallel first- and second-order reactions; this behaviour is evidently caused by the relatively high stability of the corresponding dianion, this being an intermediate in the reaction path. The presence of a larger conjugated system in the substituent in position 2 results in a decrease of the unpaired electron density in the nitro group and, consequently, an increase in the stability of the corresponding radical anions.

Nitroxide free radicals prepared from diethylamine, piperidine and pyrrolidine by oxidation with hydrogen peroxide were studied by ESR spectroscopy. The changes in the 14N splitting constant (aN) caused by the addition of KBr or tetraethylammonium bromide were measured in dependence on the concentration of the ions. For diethylamine nitroxide and piperidine nitroxide, the results are discussed in terms of two equilibria: the one, involving the anion, is associated with a gain or loss of hydrogen bonds to the nitroxide oxygen atom, the other is associated with the formation of solvent shared units involving the cation, which results in changes in the hydrogen bonding strenght. The large increase in the aN value in the case of pyrrolidine nitroxide is explained in terms of an interaction from one side of the positively charged N atom; the increase in aN in the case of diethylamine and piperidine nitroxides is explained in terms of interactions with both sides of the positively charged N atom.

The absolute rate constants for the reaction of H atoms with methyl- and vinyl-halides have been determined using esr spectroscopy and a conventional gas flow system. The rate constants determined at 298 ± 2 K at a pressure of 0.55 Torr are methane, (1.7 ± 0.3) × 10−17; ethane, (2.3 ± 0.5) × 10−17; methylfluoride, (4 ± 3) × 10−15; methylchloride, (8 ± 2) × 10−16; methylbromide, (2.1 ± 0.6) × 10−14; vinylfluoride, (1.47 ± 0.02) × 10−13; vinylchloride, (1.66 ± 0.08) × 10−13; and vinylbromide (4.07 ± 0.73) × 10−13 in units of cm3 molecule−1 s−1.
