Singlet open-shell character of conjugated Kekulé molecules
We have studied the properties of singlet open-shell molecules that are designed, synthesized, and isolated by us. The molecules contain p-quinodimethane or cumulene structures in the middle of their skeletons, and also equip spindelocalizing moieties, phenalenyl, in the both ends for thermodynamic stabilization. Crystal structures and electronic spectra revealed that these conjugated Kekulé mo...
متن کاملOligoacenes: theoretical prediction of open-shell singlet diradical ground states.
A series of oligoacenes from benzene to decacene were studied computationally with DFT and CASSCF methods. In contrast to the common view that acenes are closed-shell systems or may have a triplet ground state, these results offer the first theoretical predictions for the singlet ground state and diradical character for oligoacenes. The nature of the ground states of these molecules arises from...
متن کاملCan Unrestricted Density-Functional Theory Describe Open Shell Singlet Biradicals?
Unrestricted density functional theory (UDFT) can be used for the description of open-shell singlet (OSS) biradicals provided a number of precautions are considered. Biradicals that require a two-determinantal wave function (e.g. OSS state of carbenes) cannot be described by UDFT for principal reasons. However, if the overlap between the open-shell orbitals is small (the single electrons are lo...
متن کاملSinglet-Singlet, Triplet-Singlet, and Triplet-Triplet Energy Transfers. Evidence for Triplet Migration among Pendant Phenyl Groups of Polystyrene
Chemiluminescent techniques have been employed to investigate electronic energy transfer from ketone donors (acetone, acetophenone) to acceptors (e.g., 9,lO-diphenylanthracene and biphenyl) in films of polystyrene and polymethyl methacrylate at 50 "C. Tetramethyl-l,2-dioxetane and 3,4-diphenyl-3,4-dimethyldioxetane were used to generate excited (singlet and triplet) acetone and (triplet) acetop...
