Redox-Driven Magnetic Regulation in a Series of Couplers in Bridged Nitroxide Diradicals.

ABSTRACT: Redox-induced magnetic regulation in organic diradicals is distinctly attractive. In this work, taking nitroxide radicals as spin sources, we predict the magnetic properties of 9, 10-anthraquinone, 9, 10-phenaquone, 9, 10-diazanthracene and 9, 10-diazepine-bridged molecular diradical structures in which the couplers are prone to dihydrogenation reduction at positions 9 and 10. As evidenced at both the B3LYP and M06-2X levels of theory, the calculations confirm that the magnetic transitions between ferromagnetism and antiferromagnetism can take place for 9, 10-anthraquinone and 9, 10-diazanthracene-bridged diradicals after dihydrogenation. The differences in the magnetic behaviors and magnetic magnitudes of 9, 10-anthraquinone and 9, 10-diazanthracene-bridged diradicals before and after dih
