Abstract
Inclusion of 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxyl (TEMPOL) radical into an organic one-dimensional (1-D) nanochannels formed in guest-free tris(o-phenylenedioxy)cyclotriphosphazene (TPP) was attempted. The inclusion of TEMPOL molecules adsorbed into the TPP nanochannel and their molecular orientation and dynamics were confirmed by temperature-dependent election spin resonance (ESR) measurements. In the specimens prepared by co-precipitation, the existence of 1-D spin diffusion was suggested from the ESR line shape, but the diffusion was not as effective as in the case of the TPP and 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy (TEMPO) inclusion compound reported in our previous article. These results imply a new methodology for the preparation of a new organic magnet using TPP as a template.
