The X-band e.s.r. spectra due to the copper(II) chelates of the thiosemicarbazones salicylaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (stsc), salicylaldehyde 4-methyl(thiosemicarbazone) (smtc), salicylaldehyde 4- ethyl-(thiosemicarbazone) (setc), salicylaldehyde 4- phenyl(thiosemicarbazone) (sptc), 2-hydroxyacetophen- one 4- ethyl(thiosemicarbazone) (aetc) and 2-hydroxypropiophenone 4- ethyl(thiosemicarbazone) (petc) dissolved in various organic solvents have been studied at room temperature and down to 77 K. The e.s.r. spectra show evidence of hyperfine structure due to the 14N nucleus of the ligand. Addition of the nickel(II) chelate of the thiosemicarbazone ligands to organic solvent solutions of the corresponding copper(II) chelate brings about a profound change in the e.s.r. spectrum of the copper(II) chelate in frozen solution. These changes are interpreted as arising from a change in the ground state of the copper(II) ion from essentially dx2-y2 to d3z2-r2, which arises as a result of specific solute- solute interactions between the copper(II) and nickel(II) chelates.

Diatomic carbon (C<sub>2</sub>) is historically an elusive chemical species. It has long been believed that the generation of C<sub>2 </sub>requires extremely high “physical” energy, such as an electric carbon arc or multiple photon excitation, and so it has been the general consensus that the inherent nature of C<sub>2 </sub><i>in the ground state </i>is experimentally inaccessible. Here, we present the first “chemical” synthesis of C<sub>2 </sub>in a flask at <i>room temperature or below</i>, providing the first experimental evidence to support theoretical predictions that (1) C<sub>2 </sub>has a singlet biradical character with a quadruple bond, thus settling a long-standing controversy between experimental and theoretical chemists, and that (2) C<sub>2 </sub>serves as a molecular element in the formation of sp<sup>2</sup>-carbon allotropes such as graphite, carbon nanotubes and C<sub>60</sub>.

Flowing afterglow measurements are reported which provide rate constants and product identifications at 298 ± 2 K for the gas-phase reactions of OH− with CH3OH, C2H5OH, CH3OCH3, CH2O, CH3CHO, CH3COCH3, CH2CO, HCOOH, HCOOCH3, CH2=C=CH2, CH3—C≡CH, and C6H5CH3. The main channels observed were proton transfer and solvation of the OH−. Hydration with one molecule of H2O was observed either to reduce the rate slightly and lead to products which are the hydrated analogues of the "nude" reaction, or to stop the reaction completely, k ≤ 10−12 cm3 molecule−1 s−1. The reaction of OH−•H2O with CH3—C≡CH showed an uncertain intermediate behaviour.
