Abstract The EPR, 1H and 13C NMR spectra of methylferricinium hexafluorophosphates, [(MenCp)2Fe]PF6, n = 0-5, have been recorded. HFS constants have been estimated for all the ligand atoms. The general pattern of the spin density distribution is shown to depend on the superposition of the various mechanisms of spin delocalization. For the majority of the cations the determining factors has been found to be represented by spin polarization over the π-skeleton.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
