{"doi":"10.1021/jacs.4c05631","title":"A Stable Aluminum Tris(dithiolene) Triradical","abstract":"High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide A stable aluminum tris(dithiolene) triradical ( 3 ) was experimentally realized through a low-temperature reaction of the sterically demanding lithium dithiolene radical ( 2 ) with aluminum iodide. Compound 3 was characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, UV–vis and EPR spectroscopy, SQUID magnetometry, and theoretical computations. The quartet ground state of triradical 3 has been unambiguously confirmed by variable-temperature continuous wave EPR experiments and SQUID magnetometry. Both SQUID magnetometry and broken-symmetry DFT computations reveal a small doublet–quartet energy gap [Δ E DQ = 0.18 kcal mol –1 (SQUID); Δ E DQ = 0.14 kcal mol –1 (DFT)]. The pulsed EPR experiment (electron spin echo envelop modulation) provides further evidence for the interaction of these dithiolene-based radicals with the central aluminum nucleus of 3 .","journal":"Journal of the American Chemical Society","year":2024,"id":433059,"datarank":0.0,"base_score":0.0,"endowment":0.0,"self_citation_contribution":0.0,"citation_network_contribution":0.0,"self_endowment_contribution":0.0,"citer_contribution":0.0,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":14,"citer_count":0,"citers_with_citation_signal":0,"citers_with_endowment":0,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":0.9524,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":true,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":"2024-01-01","fair_score":null,"fair_percentile":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":404130,"name":"Yuzhong Wang","orcid":"0000-0003-3557-5085","position":1,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":229046,"name":"Boris Dzikovski","orcid":"0000-0002-5687-5207","position":2,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":1238318,"name":"Mitchell E.
