Abstract

A class of well-defined reversible σ-dimerizations of 9,10-dialkoxyanthracene radical cations are presented. Yellow crystals of the σ-dimerized dication dissociate to purple solutions of monomeric radical cations in solution. The identity and stability of radical cations were unequivocally confirmed, providing evidence for reversible σ-dimerizations of persistent radical cations of aromatic systems.
