The Unpaired Electron in Transition Metal Complexes

The present state of research into complex and organometallic compounds with an unpaired electron is described. Paramagnetic complexes of transition metals, differing in the position of the free-radical fragment and in the nature of the paramagnetic ligands are examined. The possibility of investigating the intramolecular electron transfer in the metal–ligand system and the formation of intermediate free-radical products in reactions of transition metal compounds is discussed.
