The synthesis of the free radicals 1‐(4'‐bromophenyl)‐3,5‐diphenyl‐verdazyl (Br‐TPV), 1‐(4'‐isopropyl‐phenyl)‐3,5‐diphenyl‐verdazyl (IP‐TPV), 1,3,5,6‐tetraphenyl‐verdazyl (Ph‐TPV), 6‐(1′‐naphthyl)‐1,3,5‐tri‐phenyl‐verdazyl (1N‐TPV), 6‐(2′‐naphthyl)‐1,3,5‐triphenyl‐verdazyl (2N‐TPV), 6‐(4′‐bromophenyl)‐1,3,5‐triphenyl‐verdazyl (BrPh‐TPV) and 1,3,5,6,6‐pentaphenyl‐verdazyl (PhPh‐TPV) is described. Their magnetic properties (static magnetic susceptibility, ESR) are reported for crystalline samples. They are compared with those of 1,3,5‐triphenyl‐verdazyl (TPV) which behaves as a quasi‐onedimensional antiferromagnet in the crystalline form. Exchange interaction is increased by a factor larger than 3 compared with TPV by the introduction of the additional ring in Ph‐TPV. For Ph‐TPV and PhPh‐TPV also the crystal structure was derived by X‐ray analysis. These results are discussed with special emphasis on their meaning for the tailoring of magnetic interactions in organic solids.
Copolymerization of methacrylic acid (M) and acrylonitrile (A) in bulk at 60°C gives a statistical copolymer. Through the use of 1H, 13C, DEPT and twodimensional NMR techniques, the observed resonances in the NMR spectra of these copolymers can be assigned, and thus provide detailed information about the microstructure of the polymer at the diad, triad and tetrad levels. Configurational effects have also been shown to play an important role, although in all cases the chemical shift differences resulting from configurational variation are smaller than those resulting from sequence variation.
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.
