Abstract:The peri-bridged naphthalenes Cl0I+,XY with XY = SS, SSe, STe, SeSe, SeTe, TeTe all exhibit low first vertical ionization potentials at about 7.1 eV and, therefore, can be oxidized using AIC13/H2CC12. The radical cations generated (XY = SS to SeTe) are stable at room temperature. The chalcogen bridges dominate the species M'@ regarding spin population as well as charge distribution and, correspondingly, the ESR spectra reflect the effect of increasing spin/orbit interaction S < Se < Te: line widths grow and g … Show more
