Abstract

AbstractIncorporation of muonium, the ultra‐light isotope of hydrogen with a mass of only one‐ninth the mass of H, leads to pronounced isotope effects in hyperfine coupling constants of radicals. They reflect the mass dependence of the internal dynamics. A detailed analysis is presented for the cyclohexadienyl and the cyclopentyl radicals. It is concluded that the isotope dependent bond length in an anharmonic potential accounts quantitatively for the observed effects in rigid species.
