1926 J. Am. Chem. Soc., Vol. Ill, No. 5, 1989 Communications to the Editor tadecahydrohexaazacoronene2 3 (HOC), have been synthesized for use as precursors in the preparationof high-spin solid-state organic materials. However, these dicationic triplet organics are not thermally stable. For example, the triplet state of dicationic HMT in solution was found to be stable only below the cryogenic temperature. 23 Here we report that triplet dicationic HMT molecules, after a reaction of HMT with certain acceptors and a doping process, can be stabilized in the solid state at ambient temperature to form novel organic charge-transfer salts possessing a high spin density with an anomalously small interspin coupling. The optimum organic acceptor for this study was found to be 2, 3, 5, 6-tetrafluoro-7, 7, 8, 8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (2 (TCNQF4)). The resulting reddish purple crystalline complex possesses a molecular composition (HMT) 2-TCNQF4 (3). 4· 5 Magnetic susceptibility andESR6 studies were performed on chemically doped samples of (HMT) 2-TCNQF4. The undoped (HMT) 2-TCNQF4 microcrystalline solid was studied first and proved to be only weakly paramagnetic according to ESR sus-ceptibility measurements. In fact, the static susceptibility data indicated a spin density corresponding to only 0.1 mol% spins 1/2. The doping process was carried out at the solid state of the (HMT) 2-TCNQF4 complex with arsenic pentafluoride gas. From this process we found that the contents of arsenic fluorides varied from 27% by weight to 62% by weight, which corresponds to a molecular formula (HMT) 2-TCNQF4-(AsF5¡) y (4, y= 2.0-8.4). It was reported that the main fractionof arsenic fluorides incorporated in AsF5-doped polyaromatics is a complex formof monoanionic AsF5-AsF6. 7** This is supported by the magnetic data of 4 at the low doping level (complex 5) showing a matched number of spins per complex unit between calculation and an experimental and IR spectroscopic study of our doped complex, which showed two strong distinguishing bands at 400 and 700 cm'1. However, more complicated reactions leading to other types (2)(a) Bechgaard, K.; Parker, V. DJ Am. Chem. Soc. 1972, 94, 4749.(b) Musgrave, O. C.; Webster, CJ J. Chem. Soc. 1971, 1397. Chiang, L.

Soc. 1988, 110, 3970.(4) The oscillation Weissenberg photograph of crystal 3 gave unit cell parameters a= 30 Á (roughlytwice the HMT molecular diameter), b (stacking direction along the needle axis of crystal)= 9.9 Á, and c (very disordered). The 6-axis lattice constant is 3 times the thickness of an aromatic molecule. This indicates that two HMT molecules alternate with one TCNQF4 molecule in a one-dimensional array along the needle axis in a structure of... DADDAD... Thelarge disorder along the oaxis possibly results from the fact that HMT and TCNQF4 are quite different in size and sym-metry. In this particular combination of molecular ratio and stacking nature, the order in two dimensions favors disorder in the third dimension.(5) The indirect evidence of the mixed-stack structure of 3 is derived from its transport properties. The four-probe room temperature resistivity of crystal 3 along the needle axis was found to be 10 cm. If complex 3has a segregated-stack structure, with a partial charge transfer (0.2 charge per TCNQF4) between HMT and TCNQF4, it should give an appreciable con-ductivity such as that of an organic metal or …
