Abstract

Simultaneous electrochemical and electron paramagnetic resonance experiments have been carried out on the reduced C60 fullerene to examine theg-factor assignment of the radical species. C 1−60 and C 3−60 show the following EPR characteristics at room temperature: C 1−60 :g 1−=2.0002±0.0001, 2ΔB 1s=0.17 mT, and C 3−60 :g 3−=2.0008±0.0002, 2ΔB 1s=0.07 mT. EPR linewidths are apparently narrower compared to those in most of the spectra previously reported. Variable temperature EPR study on solution containing C 1−60 has shown thatg 1− value is not while the linewidth is only slightly temperature dependent.
