In comparison with 2,1,3-benzothia(selena)diazoles, electrochemical oxidation and reduction of their 4,5,6,7-tetrafluoro derivatives and a number of related compounds were studied by cyclic voltammetry. For nine examples of this class, the first reduction peaks are reversible and corresponding radical anions (RAs) are long-lived at 295 K in MeCN and especially in DMF. The oxidation peaks were irreversible and corresponding radical cations were not observed. Electrochemically generated RAs were characterized by EPR measurements and DFT calculations at the UB3LYP/6-31+G(d) level. The spin density distribution in the RAs is analyzed in connection with effects of S substitution by Se and/or H by F. The prospects of the studied RAs in the design and synthesis of magnetically active materials are discussed. Copyright (C) 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
