✦ Synopsis


ESR spectroscopic investigations on the three-spin system (1) have been carried out. The radical (1) has a quartet ground state and associates to form a diamagnetic dimer. The association constant K263 = (6.7 + 0.3) x 10 3 l/mole was determined by susceptibility measurements, using ESR spectroscopy. From the temperature dependence of K, a standard enthalpy of association of AH Β° = 0 was obtained. Thus, the dimerisation occurs only as a result of an increase in entropy. The low-temperature ESR spectrum of (1) was interpreted with a quantummechanical model. The zero-field parameter D' = 44.1 G was determined by simulation of the experimental spectrum.

The UV-vis and variable-temperature X-band EPR spectral studies (298-77 K) on p-cation of zinc(II) tetraphenylporphyrin (ZnTPP) have revealed for the first time a labile electronic ground state. The electronic structure changes from 2 A 2u to 2 A 1u as the temperature is lowered from 298 to 150 K. A
