Electron spin resonance spectra were observed in an aqueous system containing 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene and concentrated sodium hydroxide at 0 to 40 °C. From the hyperfine structure of the spectra and temperature studies, it is concluded that the paramagnetic species is a radical generated by reduction of a 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene–OH− σ-complex. The spectral assignments were supported by using deuterated 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene.

Electron spin resonance studies on the oxygenation of the rhodium(I) cyclooctene complex [RhCl(C8H14)2]2, in N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) solution containing chloride show the presence of a paramagnetic species. This is thought to involve a rhodium(II)–superoxide [Formula: see text] species which is likely responsible for some previously reported autoxidation reactions.

Electron spin resonance spectra observed in dilute solutions of the hexafluoroarsenate salts of selenothiadiazolylium cations in polar solvents are ascribed to the parent cation radicals [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and[Formula: see text]. The g- and nitrogen hyperfine tensors for the three selenium-containing species are entirely in line with the planar π-radical description deduced in earlier studies of trithiadiazolylium. Substantial increases in the g-shifts on substitution of sulphur by selenium result in broadening of the solution spectra and concomitant loss of nitrogen hyperfine structure. From measurements made in solid SO2, the following principal tensor components were deduced for the new, Se-containing radicals:[Formula: see text]: g = (1.9930, 2.0108, 2.1379), aN(2) = (7.4, ≈0, ≈0) gauss, aSe(2) = (180, 70, 43) gauss;[Formula: see text]: g = (1.9941, 2.0108, 2.1355), aN(2) = (6.9, ≈0, ≈0) gauss, aSe(2) = (180, 70, 45) gauss;[Formula: see text]: g = (1.9957, 2.0086, 2.0736), aN(2) = (8.3, ≈0, ≈0) gauss, aSe = (198, 78, 75) gauss, where the values are given in the order x, y, z, x being the direction perpendicular to the radical plane.
