Abstract
The trifluoromethyl-substituted dithiadiazolyl and dithiazolyl radicals, F3CCNSSN (1) and F3CCSNSCCF3 (2) associate through pi*-pi* covalent and electrostatic S delta+...N delta- interactions in the solid state, but melt with a dramatic volume increase to generate paramagnetic liquids; these radicals exhibit thermal hysteresis, which arises through a meta-stable super-cooled liquid state, close to room temperature.
