Thermally-induced paramagnetism of spiropyrane iodides

Abstract

Thermally stimulated paramagnetism has been found in the iodides of organic spiropyrane molecules, namely 1-isopropyl-3,3,5′,6′-tetramethylspiro(indolino-2,2′-[2H]pyrano[3,2-b]pyridinium) (SpSpSp) and spiro(1,3,3,7′-tetramethyl-indolino-2,3′-3H-pyrano[3,2-f]quinolinium) (Sp2Sp2). The activation energy of their triplet states was determined from the temperature dependence of their magnetic moments: 0.023 and 0.032 eV, respectively. It was found that the magnetic moment, μeff, increases under UV light (250–400 nm) due to the formation of high-spin (S = 3) states of the molecules.
