description A new synthetic pathway to diradical organic systems is proposed. The effectiveness of this approach was exemplified by the synthesis of a new nitroxide diradical. An interaction of perfluorobiphenyl with lithium <i>tert</i>-butylamide, followed by oxidation of the thusly formed <i>N</i>4,<i>N</i>4′-di-<i>tert</i>-butyl-2,2′,3,3′,5,5′,6,6′-octafluorobiphenyl-4,4′-diamine with <i>meta</i>-chloroperoxybenzoic acid, led to the polyfluorinated nitroxide diradical, <i>N</i>,<i>N</i>′-(perfluorobiphenyl-4,4′-diyl)bis(<i>N</i>-<i>tert</i>-butyl(oxyl)amine), with a good total yield. The polyfluorinated diradical is stable and can be isolated in free form and completely characterized. The structure of the nitroxide diradical was proved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. According to the X-ray diffraction data, the diradical is considerably twisted: dihedral angles between the planes of the nitroxide groups and aromatic cycles are 65.1° and 69.5°, and between aromatic cycles 52.6°. Quantum chemical calculations predict well-balanced size of both intramolecular and intermolecular exchange interactions with <i>J</i> from −2.65 to −1.14 cm<sup>−1</sup>.
