Arylamines display electronic properties that are favorable for materials science. In particular, arylamines are readily oxidized to the aminium form, and this leads to conductivity in polyanilines, hole-transport properties in triarylamines, stable polyradicals with low energy or ground-state, high-spin structures, and the potential to conduct electrochemical sensing. The high yields of the palladium-catalyzed formation of di- and triarylamines has allowed for ready access to these materials as both small molecules and discrete oligomeric or polymeric macromolecules. 

In the weak field case, Flund s rule holds, and the state with the highest spin is the ground state (high spin). In the case of Mn + (d ), A is small for the octahedral Mn(OFl2) complex, and therefore the five d electrons have the same spin direction (2S -I-1 = 6 thus a spin sextet). 

Two ions are well-known for their highly anisotropic properties. Firstly, in the rare-earth family, Dy3+ which has a 6H15/2 ground state. The spin-orbit interaction is stronger than the crystal field effects. The ratio J /J can be of the order of 100 (Jj. = 0), gjj = 20 and gi = 0 this is practically an ideal case. Secondly, in the transition element series, the ion Co2+ is also characterized by anisotropic interactions (either in the tetrahedral or octahedral coordination), the anisotropy being however lower than in the case of Dy3+. J /J is about 0.5 for this ion. Some Fe2+ compounds also display a behavior approximating to the Ising model. 

ONP (Fig. 3) in organic molecular crystals can be described as a three-step process (1) optical creation of electronic spin polarization in (transient) excited triplet states (2) polarization transfer to nearby nuclear spins and (3) accumulation of bulk nuclear spin magnetization in the (diamagnetic) ground state via spin-diffusion processes. Highly detailed theoretical descriptions and modeling of ONP processes observed in many systems can be found in the reviews mentioned above thus, only a brief overview is provided here. 

The iron(II) Dj ground state is split by octahedral fields into T2g and states. High-spin octahedral iron(II) complexes have magnetic moments typically about 5.2 BM and show broad T2g to transitions occurring in the visible/near-IR region of the spectrum. Thus salts of the familiar...
