Hexathiophenalenylium Cations: Syntheses, Structures, and Redox Chemistry
摘要:
Preparations of two hexathiophenalenylium compounds as stable salts from the reaction of 3,4,6,7-tetrathio-9-hydroxyphenalenone with Lawesson's reagent have been reported. The presence of three disulfide linkages on the periphery of the core phenalenyl unit is confirmed by X-ray crystallographic characterizations. Electrochemical cell potentials are lower than those of related dithio- and tetrathio-bridged phenalenyl radicals, and the hexathiophenalenyl radical shows a strong electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) signal in the solid state.

We report the synthesis and properties of a series of spiro-bis(3,4,6,7-tetrachalcogenide-substituted-phenalenyl)boron salts and two of the corresponding tetrathioalkyl-substituted spiro-bis(phenalenyl)boron radicals [tetrathiomethyl (10) and tetrathioethyl (11)] in which all of the active positions of the phenalenyl (PLY) nucleus are functionalized. In the solid state, radicals 10 and 11 exist as a weak pi-dimers due to the steric congestion of the thioalkyl groups in the superimposed PLY units. As a result, the spins are localized in the isolated (nonsuperimposed) PLY rings, and the structure, magnetic susceptibility measurements, and band structure calculations confirm that these PLY units are unable to undergo strong intermolecular interaction as a result of the orientation of the thioalkyl groups.
