Structures of Charge-Perturbed or Sterically Overcrowded Molecules, 108 [1] Structural Changes of Tetraphenyl-p-quinodim ethane on Twofold Reduction to its Dianion
- The two-electron reduction of tetraphenyl-p-quinodimethane M via its radical anion M⊖ to its dianion M⊖⊖ is explored both by cyclovoltammetry and ESR/ENDOR spectroscopy. Contact of the diglyme solution with added 15-crown-5 under aprotic conditions with a sodium metal mirror yields black crystals of a solvent-separated contact ion triple [M⊖⊖][Na⊕(OCH2CH2)5(H3CO(CH2CH2O)2CH3)]2. The two-electron-insertion into the pquinodimethane derivative R2C⊖=C(HC=CH)2C=CR2 changes its structure drastically to that of a twofold carbanion substituted benzene, R2C⊖ -(C6H4)- ⊖CR2. MNDO calculations provide a rationale for both the tremendous solvation of a Na⊕ center coordinated to seven oxygen centers of 15-crown-5 and of one diglyme molecule and the structural changes as well as the charge distribution in the unique Tetraphenyl-p-quinodimethane dianion (H5C6)2C⊖-(C6H4)- ⊖C(C6H5)2, in which the two negative charges are largely localized at the carbanion center of the benzene -substituents.
