| Das Methylviologen-Radikalkation. Synthese, Kristallstruktur und ab Rechnungen von N,N'-Dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium-chlorid-dihydrat The Methylviologen Radical Cation. Synthesis, Crystal Structure and ab initio Calculations of N,N' -Dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium Chloride Dihydrate  | | | Abstract
| The title compound has been prepared by the reduction of N,N'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium dichloride with dilithium tritelluride in dimethylformamide solution. It forms deep blue crystal needles, which were characterized by a crystal structure determination. Space group Pna21; Z -8, 3450 observed unique reflections, R = 0.045. Lattice dimensions at -70 °C: a = 1707.6(8), b = 2323.9(11), c -664.6(3) pm. The N,N'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium radical cations are planar and form ion pairs in the lattice. The chloride ions together with the water molecules form an infinite network of hydrogen bridges along the crystallographic «-axis. The structural parameters of the radical cation are in excellent agreement with ab initio calculations. | | |
