Abstract
The didehydro[n]annulenes 1 (n = 14), 2 (n = 18), and 3 (n = 22) are oxidized to radical cations. Reduction of the title compounds leads to radical anions and, in the case of 2 and 3, to radical trianions. The hyperfine data of the paramagnetic derivatives are rationalized in terms of the occupation of n‐membered (n = 14, 18, 22) π‐perimeter MO's (HOMO, LUMO, NLUMO). The contact‐ion pairs of the radical anions show unexpectedly large alkali‐metal coupling constants.
