Chalcogen bond activation in cation radical salts of naphthalene peri-diselenides with S = 5/2 magnetic anions
{{output}}
The activation of strong σ-holes in the oxidized form of 2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene peri-diselenide (1) is demonstrated in its radical salts with magnetic (S = 5/2) FeX4- anions as well as their diamagnetic analogs GaX4- (X = Cl, Br). All four salts exhibit sho... ...
