The observed change in the 10.38 GHz PhlDR signal of pyrazine in durene at 1.6 K upon the appliation of a magnetic fieid of O-500 G cannot be explained by the direct Sl(n, n\*) l---f T1 (n, rr\*) intersystem crossing process.

✦ Synopsis
Using symmetry selection rules it is shown that the S r + TX intersystem crossing (ISC) process in (;:on-rotating) platrar condensed aromatic compounds with lowest states of the X,ZI * type leads to triplet states with the two unpaired electrons spinning in the molecular plane. Out-of-plane distortion is required to produce spin afignrnent in the two magnetic planes perpendicular to the molecular plane. The results of the pulsed excitation PXIDR method show that out-of-plane distortion enhances the S1 --+ TX ISC process in benzene, naphthalene, phenanthrene, triphenylene and coronene by a factor larger than five.
