Abstract
A series of 1,3-di(diarylamino)benzenes (DABs) and 1,3,5-tris(diarylamino) benzenes (TABs) were synthesized as model precursors for polycationic πconjugated high-spin systems. CV measurement at low temperature showed that the chemical stability in solution of mono- and polycationic oxidation states of the various DABs and TABs derivatives depend on their structures. Correlation between the chemical stability of these cations and their molecular structure is discussed.
