Abstract
A new method for the preparation of the underrepresented 1,5-dimethyl-6-thioverdazyl radicals has been developed employing Lawesson's reagent (LR). The synthetic route involves the direct thionation of the carbonyl group of the corresponding dialkylbishydrazone followed by cyclization to give the tetrazinanthione verdazyl precursor on a gram scale. Subsequent oxidation yields the 6-thioverdazyl radical. It was determined that thionation of substrates containing electron-withdrawing groups in the ortho- or para-positions was high yielding. In contrast, for the parent phenyl group or substrates bearing weakly electron-donating substituents, thionation efficiency was significantly reduced. This could be overcome by utilizing partial in situ cyclization, which occurs during work up, to generate the tetrazinanthione directly via a one-pot synthesis. Density functional theory suggests that the LR fragment interacts with the carbonyl prior to cycloaddition and subsequent to cycloreversion, leading to the thiocarbonyl. The electronic nature of the radical is characterized with electron paramagnetic resonance as well as the first report of 6-thioverdazyl redox properties.

Abstract
An optimized synthetic protocol toward the assembly of Kuhn verdazyls based on an azo coupling of arenediazonium salts with readily available hydrazones followed by the base-mediated cyclization of in situ formed formazans with formalin was developed. The scope and limitations of the presented method were revealed. Some new mechanistic insights on the formation of Kuhn verdazyls were also conducted. It was found that in contradiction with previously assumed hypotheses, the synthesis of verdazyls was accomplished via an intermediate formation of verdazylium cations which were in situ reduced to leucoverdazyls. The latter underwent deprotonation under basic conditions to generate corresponding anions which coproportionate with verdazylium cations to furnish the formation of Kuhn verdazyls. The spectroscopic and electrochemical behavior of the synthesized verdazyls was also studied. Overall, our results may serve as a reliable basis for further investigation in the chemistry and applications of verdazyls.

Abstract
1,5-Dimethyl-3-(3'-(hydroxymethyl)-2'-pyridine)-6-oxotetrazane (H3vdpyCH2OH) or its oxidized verdazyl form (vdpyCH2OH) reacted with transition metal and/or lanthanide acetates to yield [(vdpyCH2O)2Co2Ln2(acO)8] (Ln = Y(III): ICo,Y; Gd(III): ICo,Gd), [(vdpyCH2O)2M3(acO)4] (M = Zn(II): IIZn; Co(II): IICo) and [(vdpyCH2OH)Zn(acO)2] (IIIZn) through self-assembly implying a complex-as-ligand intermediate. Single-crystal diffraction reveals that IMT,Ln are composed of 2p-3d-4f centrosymmetric clusters with verdazyl radicals at the two ends coordinated to the transition-metal ion in a tridentate mode and to the {Ln2(acO)4} lanthanide central core in a monodentate mode through its alkoxo moiety. In ICo,Gd, the transition-metal ions adopt an irregular octahedral environment, and the {Ln2(acO)4} core adopts a paddlewheel motif, whereas in ICo,Y, the transition metal is pentacoordinated, and the central core contains only two acetate bridges. Going from ICo,Y to IICo, the central {Y2(acO)4} core is replaced by an axially compressed octahedral cobalt(II) center, whereas the outer parts of the molecule remain still. The dc magnetic studies revealed that the alternate π-stacking of the verdazyl radicals in IIZn led to the formation of alternate antiferromagnetically coupled 1D chains with Jvd-vd = -8.2(1) cm-1 and Jvd-vd' = -7.6(1) cm-1 (-2J convention). In ICo,Y, a complex fitting procedure allowed us to retrieve a complete set of magnetic parameters to take into account both the magnetic anisotropy of the cobalt(II) centers and intra- and inter-molecular exchange effects. For ICo,Y, it led to gCo = 2.13(4), DCo = 100(2) cm-1, ECo = 19.9(5) cm-1, JCo-vd = +26.5(4) cm-1, and Jvd-vd = -7.95(4) cm-1. ac magnetic susceptibility of ICo,Y, ICo,Gd and IICo did not reveal any slow relaxation of the magnetization even when a dc external magnetic field up to 2000 Oe was applied.

Abstract
The synthetic viability of the hydrazine- and phosgene-free synthesis of 1,5-dimethyl oxo-verdazyl radicals has been improved via a detailed study investigating the influence of the aryl substituent on tetrazinanone ring formation. Although it is well established that functionalisation at the C3 position of the tetrazinanone ring does not influence the nature of the radical, it is crucial in applications development. The synthetic route involves a 4-step sequence: Schiff base condensation of a carbohydrazide with an arylaldehyde, alkylation, ring closure then subsequent oxidation to the radical. We found that the presence of strong electron-donating substituents and electron rich heterocycles, result in a significant reduction in yield during both the alkylation and ring closure steps. This can, in part, be alleviated by milder alkylation conditions and further substitution of the aryl group. In comparison, more facile formation of the tetrazine ring was observed with examples containing electron-withdrawing groups and with meta- or para-substitution. Density functional theory suggests that the ring closure proceeds via the formation of an ion pair. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy provides insight into the precise electronic structure of the radical with small variations in hyperfine coupling constants revealing subtle differences.

Abstract
To study the effect of a stable radical on the photophysical properties of a phosphorescent Pt(II) coordination framework and the intramolecular magnetic interaction between radical ligands in the N^N Pt(II) bisacetylide complexes, we prepared a series of N^N Pt(II) bis(acetylide) complexes with oxoverdazyl radical acetylide ligands. The linker between the Pt(II) center and the spin carrier was systematically varied, to probe the effect on the sign and magnitude of the spin exchange interactions between the radical ligands and photophysical properties. The complexes were studied with steady-state and femtosecond/nanosecond transient absorption spectroscopy, continuous-wave electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, and density functional theory (DFT) computations. The transient absorption spectral studies show that the doublet excited state of the radicals are short-lived (τD ≈ 2 ps) and nonfluorescent. Moreover, the intrinsic long-lived triplet excited state (τT = 1.2 μs) of the Pt(II) coordination center was efficiently quenched by the radical (τT = 6.9 ps for one representative radical Pt(II) complex). The intramolecular magnetic interaction between the radical ligands through the diamagnetic Pt(II) atom was studied with temperature-dependent EPR spectroscopy; antiferromagnetic exchange interaction (-J S1S2, J = -5.4 ± 0.1 cm-1) for the complex with the shortest radical-radical distance through bridge fragments was observed. DFT computations give similar results for the sign and magnitude of the J values. For complexes with larger inter-radical distance, however, very weak coupling between the radical ligands was observed (|J| < 0.7 cm-1). Our results are useful for the study of the effect of a radical on the photophysical properties of the phosphorescent transition-metal complexes.

Abstract
A series of palladium(ii) complexes containing a redox-active, tridentate verdazyl ligand of general formula (verdazyl)PdL (L = Cl, CH3CN) are synthesized. The tetrazine core of tridentate verdazyl ligand 5 is flanked by two pyridyl groups, creating a geometry in which the ancillary ligand L is bound trans to the verdazyl ring in the square planar metal complexes. Pd(ii) complexes were isolated with the verdazyl ligand in either its neutral radical charge state (6: L = CH3CN, 12: L = Cl) or its closed-shell monoanionic charge state (10: L = CH3CN, 9: L = Cl). The charge state of the ligand was determined using X-ray crystallography and NMR, EPR, and IR spectroscopy. The cyclic voltammograms of radical complexes 6 and 12 each contain a reversible one-electron reduction wave and an irreversible one-electron oxidation wave. The complexes can be chemically interconverted between radical ligand (6, 12) and reduced, closed-shell anion (9, 10) using decamethylferrocene as the reductant and a mixture of 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone and fluoroboric acid as the oxidant.

Abstract
Aerobic reaction of the ligand H2L1, 2-(2-phenylazo)-anilino-4,6-di-tert-butylphenol, CoCl2·6H2O and Et3N in MeOH under refluxing conditions produces, after work-up and recrystallization, black crystals of [Co(L1)2] (1). When examined by cyclic voltammetry, 1 displays in CH2Cl2 three one-electron redox responses: two oxidative, E11/2 = 0.30 V (peak-to-peak separation, ΔEp = 100 mV) and E21/2 = 1.04 V (ΔEp = 120 mV), and one reductive E1/2 = -0.27 V (ΔEp = 120 mV) vs. SCE. Consequently, 1 is chemically oxidized by 1 equiv. of [FeIII(η5-C5H5)2][PF6], affording the isolation of deep purple crystals of [Co(L1)2][PF6]·2CH2Cl2 (2), and one-electron reduction with [CoII(η5-C5H5)2] yielded bluish-black crystals of [CoIII(η5-C5H5)2][Co(L1)2]·MeCN (3). A solid sample of 1 exhibits temperature-independent (50-300 K) magnetism, revealing the presence of a free radical (S = 1/2), which exhibits an isotropic EPR signal (g = 2.003) at 298 K and at 77 K an eight-line feature characteristic of hyperfine-interaction of the radical with the Co (I = 7/2) nucleus. Based on X-ray structural parameters of 1-3 at 100 K, magnetic and EPR spectral behaviour of 1, and variable-temperature (233-313 K) 1H NMR spectral features of 1-3 and 13C NMR spectra at 298 K of 2 and 3 in CDCl3 point to the electronic structure of the complexes as either [CoIII{(LAP)2-}{(LISQ)}˙-] or [CoIII{(L1)2}˙3-] (delocalized nature favours the latter description) (1), [CoIII{(LISQ)˙-}2][PF6]·2CH2Cl2 (2) and [CoIII(η5-C5H5)2][CoIII{(LAP)2-}2]·MeCN (3) [(LAP)2- and (LISQ)˙- represent the redox-level of coordinated ligands o-amidophenolate(2-) ion and o-iminobenzosemiquinonate(1-) π-radical ion, respectively]. Notably, all the observed redox processes are ligand-centred. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that six-coordinate complexes of a common tridentate o-aminophenolate-based ligand have been structurally characterized for the parent 1, its monocation 2 and the monoanion 3 counterparts. Temperature-dependent 1H NMR spectra reveal the existence of valence-tautomeric equilibria in 1-3. Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP-level of theory corroborate the electronic structural assignment of 1-3 from experimental data. The origins of the observed UV-VIS-NIR absorptions for 1-3 have been assigned, based on time-dependent (TD)-DFT calculations.

Abstract
This work explores the use of Kuhn verdazyl radicals as building blocks in multifunctional molecular materials in an exemplary study, focusing on the magnetic and the electron transfer (ET) characteristics, but also addressing the question whether chemical modification by cross-coupling is possible. The ET in solution is studied spectroscopically, whereas solid state measurements afford information about the magnetic susceptibility or the conductivity of the given samples. The observed results are rationalized based on the chemical structures of the molecules, which have been obtained by X-ray crystallography. The crystallographically observed molecular structures as well as the interpretation based on the spectroscopic and physical measurements are backed up by DFT calculations. The measurements indicate that only weak, antiferromagnetic (AF) coupling is observed in Kuhn verdazyls owed to the low tendency to form face-to-face stacks, but also that steric reasons alone are not sufficient to explain this behavior. Furthermore, it is also demonstrated that ET reactions proceed rapidly in verdazyl/verdazylium redox couples and that Kuhn verdazyls are suited as donor molecules in ET reactions.

Abstract
The synthesis and ligand-centered redox chemistry of palladium complexes bearing two potentially bidentate verdazyl ligands is explored. Reaction of 1,5-diisopropyl-3-pyridin-2-yl-6-oxoverdazyl radical 1 with Pd(NCMe)4·2BF4 gives a complex containing two coordinated verdazyl radicals. The structure of this complex consists of one verdazyl bound to Pd in a bidentate mode and the second verdazyl bound in a monodentate fashion through the pyridine substituent; the fourth coordination site is occupied by a solvent molecule (acetonitrile (3) or dimethyl sulfoxide (4)). Two-electron reduction of this complex with decamethylferrocene affords a bis(verdazyl) palladium complex (5) in which both verdazyls have been reduced to their anionic state and are both bound to Pd in bidentate manner. Complex 5 can be independently synthesized by a redox reaction between 1 and Pd2(dba)3. Reduced complex 5 can be re-oxidized to 3 or 4 with AgBF4; in contrast, oxidation with PhICl2 leads to ligand dissociation, ultimately giving radical 1 and a mono(verdazyl)dichloropalladium complex 2. One-electron oxidation using PhICl2 produces a formally "mixed valent" (in ligand) bis(verdazyl)chloropalladium complex (6) with one bidentate verdazyl anion ligand and one monodentate (pyridine-bound) verdazyl radical. Attempted protonation of the verdazyl ligands in complex 5 leads to complete ligand dissociation and protonation of both the tetrazine and pyridine moieties; deprotonation regenerates 5. Subsequent air oxidation of the tetrazane/pyridinium cation (formed as a tetrachloropalladate salt) leads to re-coordination of the verdazyl ligands to give 6 initially, but ultimately produces a combination of free radical 1 and 2.

Abstract
Remote coordination of a Ru(hfac)2 moiety to a chelating N-benzyl tetrazine lowers the C-N homolytic bond dissociation enthalpy by approximately 20 kJ mol(-1). The significant bond strength perturbation is believed to arise as a consequence of metal-ligand redox non-innocence.

Abstract
Reactivity studies of a Pd(II)-verdazyl complex reveal novel ligand-centred reduction processes which trigger pseudo-reductive elimination at Pd. Reaction of the complex with water induces a ligand-centred redox disproportionation. The reduced verdazyl ligands can also be reversibly protonated.

Abstract
The double exchange is a well-known and technically important phenomenon in solid state physics. Ionizing a system composed of two antiferromagnetically coupled high-spin units, the ground state of which is a singlet state, may actually produce a high-spin ground state. This work illustrates the possible occurrence of such a phenomenon in organic chemistry. The here-considered high-spin units are triangulenes, the ground state of which is a triplet. Bridging two of them through a benzene ring produces a molecular architecture of singlet ground state. A careful exploitation of a series of unrestricted density functional calculations enables one to avoid spin contamination in the treatment of the doublet states and shows that under ionization the system becomes of quartet multiplicity in its ground state. The possibility to align more than three spins from conjugated hydrocarbon polyradicals is explored, considering partially hydrogenated triangulenes. A dramatic example shows that ionization of a singlet ground state molecule may generate a decuplet.
