Spin-Delocalization with a Twist: Chiral Open-Shell Helices (INSPIRAL)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2017, Date de fin: 31 mars 2022,

Spin-delocalization in molecules containing unpaired electrons gives rise to an unusual intermolecular interaction, named as pancake bond. This bonding interaction couples unpaired electrons between multiple pairs of atoms from each face-to-face oriented spin units, such as phenalenyl radical, and abets formation of assemblies that display large antiferromagnetic interaction in the solid state. Th ...
