It bas been shown that some tetra-coordinate phosphorus and arsenic radicals combine with oxygen to give peroxy radicals. The magnitude of the oxygen isotropic and anisotropic hyperfine coupling constants indicates that nearly all the unpaired spin is associated with the two oxygen nuclei with ca. 60% on the terminal oxygen. The large isotropic g-factors associated with Group VB peroxy radicals relative to alkylperoxy radicals is attributed to a small change in geometry of the peroxy function.The radicals with ap ∼ 9 G obtained during the reaction of photochemically generated tert-butoxy radicals with trialkylphosphites in the presence of oxygen are secondary species which appear to contain only one oxygen atom.

The electron spin resonance (e.s.r.) study of the ethyleneimine in polycrystalline and glassy state shows that the radical [Formula: see text] is formed by γ-irradiation at 77 °K. The features of the e.s.r. spectrum of this radical are discussed in terms of the isotropic and anisotropic hyperfine coupling constants of the hydrogen and nitrogen nuclei. The effects of bleaching the γ-irradiated sample with visible and ultraviolet light are also reported.

The linear relationship between the electron spin resonance hyperfine coupling constants (hfc) of the α- and β-hydrogens of para-substituted α-phenethyl radicals provides experimental evidence that the magnitude of both the α- and β -hfc is determined largely by the extent of spin delocalization in these benzylic systems. The [Formula: see text] scale, developed using substituted benzyl radicals, is shown to apply to phenethyl radicals as well.

Electron spin resonance spectra are reported from a number of radicals derived from 2,4-pentadione substituted at the 3 position with nitroxide-containing groups. If the substituent is t-butyl nitroxide no metal complexes are formed. This is attributed to steric factors which prevent the formation of the enol form of the β-diketone. If the substituent is trifluoromethyl nitroxide two types of metal complex have been observed. The esr spectra of the first type are very similar to that of the uncomplexed radical. Such complexes are formed with Co(III) and Al(III). The esr spectra of the second type show considerably increased 14N and 19F hyperfine coupling constants and in some cases large couplings to the metal nucleus. Complexes for the second type have been observed with Pd(II), Pt(II), and Rh(III). The possible structures of these radicals are discussed.

The hyperfine coupling constants for the radical anions of 2,3-dihydro- phenalene (perinaphthane) and 7,8,9,l0-tetrahydrocyclohepta[de]naphthalene have been determined from analysis of the electron spin resonance spectra in solution. The results are compared with data from other mono- and di-peri- substituted naphthalenes. A simple H�ckel molecular orbital treatment is used to describe the inductive effect of the aliphatic substituent.

Several 4-substituted benzyl radicals of the general form R(On)SC6H4CH2•(n = 0, 1, 2; R = Me, Ph, Tol, COCH3 OCH3) have been investigated by electron spin resonance (esr) spectroscopy. In general, the ability to delocalize spin density onto the substituent decreases as n increases. The effect of R on the spin density depends on the oxidation state of the sulphur. These trends are explained by considering the sulphur to be either a spin donor or a spin acceptor, depending on the oxidation state. The σ•α values are determined.
