Three‐Dimensional Intramolecular Exchange Interaction in a Curved and Nonalternant π‐Conjugated System: Corannulene with Two Phenoxyl Radicals

Abstract: In recent years, curved p-conjugated molecules such as fullerenes and carbon nanotubes have attracted much attention not only in chemistry but also in materials science. [1] Their intra/intermolecular interactions within/between threedimensional (3D) curved p-electron networks play intrinsically vital roles in their unique properties and functionalities. Among them, intramolecular magnetic interaction between electronic spins on a curved p surface was extensively studied for ionic species of C 60 such as C 60 … Show more

“…The discovery of fullerenes and carbon nanotubes has motivated the pursuit of nonplanar polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). In particular, bowl-shaped PAHs are attractive synthetic targets. Interest in curved aromatic scaffolds continues to increase because such systems offer high prospects for packing control as desired in organic materials and supramolecular chemistry (e.g., in bulk heterojunction solar cells, , liquid crystals, , supramolecular polymerization, and host–guest complexation). Being commercially available and mass-producible, corannulene has become the most utilized precursor for bowl-shaped PAHs and has been functionalized with various moieties. , Simple groups are introduced by nucleophilic substitution, , metal-catalyzed C–C bond formation, or Rieche formylation . As well, substituents may be installed prior to constructing the corannulene scaffold. ,, Extension of the corannulene π-scaffold is achieved by introduction of electron-rich aromatic substituents followed by direct arylation or oxidative condensation. However, it is challenging to expand the corannulene π-scaffold with electron-deficient substituents by the above-mentioned synthetic methods .…”

“…Diradicals have always attracted the attention of chemists owing to their unique role in understanding the fundamental nature of chemical bonds and of reactivity 4 8 . In the last decade, the class of diradicals based on open-shell π-conjugated structures have become of interest in various organic electronic and magnetic applications 9 11 .…”

“…Against the background of actively investigated diradicals linked by alternant hydrocarbons, there are only a few reports about diradicals that are linked by nonalternant systems [24][25][26][27][28]. Nonbonding molecular orbitals (MOs) of such a diradical are denoted as disjoint diradicals (the two SOMOs are confined to distinct spatial regions), indicating that the triplet and singlet states are degenerate on the Hückel MO level, whereas the degeneracy tends to be disrupted via the inclusion of a configuration interaction to obtain singlet ground states [19].…”
