## Abstract The radical anions of __m__‐ and __p__‐ nitro‐substituted derivatives of several classes of __N__‐(thioacyl)‐piperidines and ‐morpholines have been studied by ESR spectroscopy. The anion radicals were found to be centred on the nitro group, and the distribution of the unpaired electron

✦ Synopsis
The electron spin resonance spectra of the tris(4-nitrophenyl)methyl and tris(2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-4-nitro-pheny1)methyl radicals in toluene solution have been obtained and their "N, ' % and 'H hypefine splitting constants have been determined. Analysis of the data indicates that fluorine substituents in this system are appreciably electron attracting. This is in contrast to the fluorinated nitrobenzene radical ions, where the data suggest that fluorine may be weakly electron donating. The present results on the fluoro-and nitro-substituted radical also lead to the conclusion that no steric interaction between the NO, group and ortho-fluorine atoms occurs, and that the group remains coplanar with the aromatic rings. The nitro group in these radicals is less electron attracting than in the nitrobenzene anions and their protonated analogs.

In dimethylformamide the ESR spectra of the radical anions of dibenzoCf,h]quinoxaline and dibenzo[a,c]phenazine both exhibit line broadening due to slow molecular tumbling over a wide temperature range. Similar effects are also observed in the spectra of the radical anions of quinoxaline and phenazi
