Abstract
Proton‐hyperfine data are reported for the radical anions generated from azulene (1) and its alkyl derivatives 2–11 in 1,2‐dimethoxyethane both ‘chemically’ with K and electrolytically. The alkyl derivatives are 1,3‐dimethyl‐ (2), 5,7‐dimethyl‐ (3), 1,3,5,7‐tetramethyl‐ (4), 2‐methyl‐ (5), 4,6,8‐trimethyl‐ (6), 2,4,6,8‐tetramethyl‐(7), 1,3,4,6,8‐pentamethyl‐ (8), 1,3,4,8‐tetramethyl‐6‐propyl‐ (9), 6‐(tert‐butyl)‐1,3,4,8‐tetramethyl‐ (10), and 1,2,3,4,6,8‐hexamethylazulene (11). Alkyl substituents at the odd‐numbered centers μ = 1, 3, 5, and 7 partly shift the π‐spin population from the seven‐ to the five‐membered ring, whereas those at the even‐numbered centers μ = 4, 6, and 8 exert an opposite effect on the π‐spin distribution.
