Radical help: The use of a spin-labeled ligand allows a zinc–zinc-bonded compound supported by radical-anionic ligands to be prepared (see scheme). The radical anion enabled the presence of the ZnZn bond in solution to be confirmed by ESR spectroscopy. DFT calculations confirm the biradical nature of the compound and indicate that the ZnZn bond is formed mainly by the metal s orbitals.
