A stable chiral hetero[4]helicene radical cation was synthesized and characterized by UV/Vis absorption and EPR spectroscopy, as well as X-ray crystallography. For the first time, a combination of chiroptical methods involving ECD, ORD, and VCD, supported by quantum mechanical predictions, enabled the elucidation of the absolute configuration of such open-shell helical species.
合成了一种稳定的手性杂[4]螺旋烯自由基阳离子,并通过紫外/可见吸收光谱、电子顺磁共振光谱以及X射线晶体学对其进行了表征。首次通过量子力学预测支持的包括电子圆二色光谱(ECD)、旋光色散(ORD)和振动圆二色光谱(VCD)在内的多种圆二色光谱方法相结合,得以阐明这种开壳层螺旋物种的绝对构型。
