Notizen:
The paramagnetic complexes di(mesityl)([5]trovacenyl)borane (5·), (mesityl)di([5]trovacenyl)borane (6··), and tri([5]trovacenyl)borane (7···) were prepared from [5]trovacenyllithium, (η5-C7H7)V(η5-C5H4Li), and (Mes)2BF, (Mes)BF2, and BF3, respectively. The propeller-shaped species 5·, 6··, and 7··· were subjected to X-ray diffraction with the aim of possibly correlating the twist angles with intramolecular intermetallic communication. Cyclic voltammetry points to successive vanadium-centered oxidation processes and boron-centered reduction, a small redox splitting δE1/2[(2+/+), (+/0)] being observed for 6··. According to EPR spectroscopy, performed in fluid solution, the exchange interaction J in the diradical 6·· approaches the fast-exchange region and is attenuated significantly by quaternization at boron in [6··-nBu]-. Although EPR spectroscopy of the triradical 7··· also indicates an extensive exchange interaction, the exchange parameters, derived from spectral simulation, follow the gradation J(7···) ≈ 1/3 J(6··). The magnetic susceptibility of 6·· and 7··· follows the same trend. As expected, compound 7··· exhibits spin frustration because it contains three antiferromagnetically coupled S = 1/2 systems that are arranged in an equilateral triangle.
