Design of an open-shell nitrogen-centered diradicaloid with tunable stimuli-responsive electronic properties

The electronic structures and open-shell diradical character of organic diradicaloids endow them with potentially useful optical, electronic and magnetic properties. Here, an open-shell nitrogen-centered diradicaloid is reported and shown to readily react with Lewis and Brønsted acids to form acid-b...
