The electron spin resonance spectra of pyrene, dissolved in sulfur dioxide – boron trifluoride, are investigated. Two different spectra can be obtained, depending on the experimental conditions, and are ascribed to the monomeric and dimeric hydrocarbon radical cations.

The electron spin resonance spectra of several substituted pyrene cations, produced by oxidation with boron trifluoride in sulfur dioxide, are reported. The spectra are analyzed and the splitting constants given. With 4-chloropyrene, hyperfine splitting is observed due to the chlorine atom, for the first time in such a species. Molecular orbital calculations (Hückel and McLachlan) are presented for three of the compounds studied.

The e.s.r. spectra of the cation radicals of various alkyl substituted 4,4′-dihydroxybiphenyls have been studied. These spectra give information regarding the molecular motions occurring in these compounds.
