@IAlabugin Thank you for sharing. We never looked into the isolated Rydberg radicals (though it would be fascinating of course). Our calculations were limited to where density originates and lands during a potential charge-transfer event between the thiolate and hydrazinium fragments.
Neutral tetravalent nitrogen? Thank you for this wonderfully educational violation of the octet rule, just in time for tomorrow’s class! It will give my students an excellent reason to think about what those lines between atoms actually mean.
P.S. Congratulations on a nice paper!
A Synthetic Method to Hydrogen Radicals pubs.acs.org/jacsat/article…
2000 K, γ-rays, UV-Mercury. That is what it took to access H•, the smallest radical in the universe. We used light, at r.t. First paper from @TheKumarLab1
Many thanks to Nils, Alberto and Peter @peterseeberger
@nippleointment@peterseeberger@Roopender_Kumar@ACSPublications@MpiciPotsdam@uclChemistry @ucl@J_A_C_S Fair point. The distinction here is mechanistic: those are polar/pericyclic pathways. Our work is about generating and harnessing H• as a genuine radical, evidenced by EPR, radical clocks, and deuterium labelling. The paper addresses this directly, worth a read.
