Stable radicals - molecules with odd electrons which aresufficiently long lived to be studied or isolated usingconventional techniques - have enjoyed a long history and are ofcurrent interest for a broad array of fundamental and appliedreasons, for example to study and drive novel chemical reactions,in the development of rechargeable batteries or the study of freeradical reactions in the body.
In Stable Radicals: Fundamentals and Applied Aspects ofOdd-Electron Compounds a team of international experts providea broad-based overview of stable radicals, from the fundamentalaspects of specific classes of stable neutral radicals to theirwide range of applications including synthesis, materials scienceand chemical biology. Topics covered include:
* triphenylmethyl and related radicals
* polychlorinated triphenylmethyl radicals: towardsmultifunctional molecular materials
* phenalenyls, cyclopentadienyls, and other carbon-centeredradicals
* the nitrogen oxides: persistent radicals and van der Waalscomplex dimers
* nitroxide radicals: properties, synthesis and applications
* the only stable organic sigma radicals:di-tert-alkyliminoxyls.
* delocalized radicals containing the hydrazyl [R2N-NR] unit
* metal-coordinated phenoxyl radicals
* stable radicals containing the thiazyl unit: synthesis,chemical, and materials properties
* stable radicals of the heavy p-block elements
* application of stable radicals as mediators in living-radicalpolymerization
* nitroxide-catalyzed alcohol oxidations in organicsynthesis
* metal-nitroxide complexes: synthesis and magneto-structuralcorrelations
* rechargeable batteries using robust but redox-active organicradicals
* spin labeling: a modern perspective
* functional in vivo EPR spectroscopy and imaging usingnitroxides and trityl radicals
* biologically relevant chemistry of nitroxides
Stable Free Radicals: Fundamentals and Applied Aspects ofOdd-Electron Compounds is an essential guide to thisfascinating area of chemistry for researchers and students workingin organic and physical chemistry and materials science.
