tural feature of these (TMPDO),TCNE arrays is rectangular four-site 0 -C binding at the TCNE olefinic carbon atoms, which appear to interact through their K* lobes. The topological requirement for DA complexation at the N-oxide center is more flexible, allowing the formation of both ladder and web (crosslinked ladder) DA arrays in the (TMPDO),TCNE crystals as the N-0-C angle flexes. TMPDO (2.58 g, 69%, m.p. 498 K (493 K 1221) was prepared by treatment of 2,3,5,6-tetramethylpyrazine (2.95 g, Aldrich) in CH,CI, (50 mL) with potassium peroxomonosulfate (66.6 g, 5 equiv; OXONE, Aldrich) in H,O (400 mL) with vigorous stirring at 298 K for 24 h. TCNE (Aldrich) was purified by multiple sublimation (373 K, 0.05 mmHg) through activated charcoal. Conditions for the Benesi-Hildebrand analysis: [TMPDO] = 1 . 9 0 m ~; [TCNE] =18.7, 34.0, 51.1, 66.4, 75.7, and 9 0 . 6 m ~. Purple crystals of (TMPDO),TCNE were prepared by cooling a mixture of TMPDO ( 4 0 m ~) and TCNE ( 2 0 m ~) in CH,CN to 253 K for 2-5 h. Red prismatic crystals of (TMPDO),TCNE were prepared analogously, after 2-3 d crystallization. Crystal X-ray diffraction was performed on a Siemens SMART diffractometer with CCD area detection at 293 (purple (111) and 173 K (red 1131) with monochromatic Mo,.radiation ( A = 0.71073 8,). Solution and refinement (against were performed with SHELXTL. No absorption correction was employed. Hydrogen atoms were placed in calculated positions (0.95 8, from the methyl carbon atom with tetrahedral angles). They were given torsional freedom and their thermal parameters were set to 1.2 x Oc, of the bonded carbon atom.
