FIGURE 3.24 The paramagnetic properties of oxygen are evident when liquid oxygen is poured between the poles of a magnet. The liquid sticks to the magnet instead of flowing past it. 

Other purification methods include a liquid phase chromatography, electrophoretic separation by mass spectroscopy, separation using magnetic properties, and so on. These separation methods are limited only for the metal nanoparticles having a special property useful for these purification methods.

The physical properties of solvents greatly influence the choice of solvent for a particular application. The solvent should be liquid under the temperature and pressure conditions at which it is employed. Its thermodynamic properties, such as the density and vapor pressure, temperature and pressure coefficients, as well as the heat capacity and surface tension, and transport properties, such as viscosity, diffusion coefficient, and thermal conductivity, also need to be considered. Electrical, optical, and magnetic properties, such as the dipole moment, dielectric constant, refractive index, magnetic susceptibility, and electrical conductance are relevant, too. Furthermore, molecular... 

When R = Bu or a polyfluorinated aryl group (4-XCgF4, X = Br, CN, NO2), the 1,2,3,5-dithiadiazolyl radicals [RCN2S2] exist as monomers, whose magnetic properties are of particular interest. The tert-butyl derivative 5.5 is an unusual example of a liquid that is paramagnetic at room temperature the... 

There is also a temperature effect. Generally at low temperatures (liquid nitrogen or even liquid helium), spectra will show more detail with regard to magnetic properties and are easier to obtain. For the nuclei of many elements, spectra are obtainable only at low temperatures if at all. 

There is reason to believe that an equilibrium of this type exists between the sodium ions and the electrion to form an ion pair as a result of coulombic interactions. If the conductance data for sodium are used to determine the equilibrium constant of sodium in liquid ammonia for computing the constant of the ion pair equilibrium, the experimental data do not conform to values required for such an equilibrium. This is because electrons in dilute solutions exhibit magnetic properties, from which we may conclude that, at very low concentrations, the electron has a spin of l/2 Bohr unit. It is, therefore, necessary to take into account the effect of the decreasing proportion of electrons that may be spin-coupled and interacting with the positive ions of the solvent. One of us (Evers) made the simplest possible assumption, following a model proposed by Becker, Lindquist, and Alder (BLA), namely that when two ion pairs, consisting of a sodium ion and an electron, come together the spins of the two electrons couple to form disodium spinide, and that this coulombic compound is not dissociated into ions at low concentrations. 

Solvent can affect the electronic structure of the solute and, hence, its magnetic properties either directly (e.g. favouring more polar resonance forms) or indirectly through geometry changes. Furthermore, it can influence the dynamical behaviour of the molecule for example, viscous and/or oriented solvents (such as liquid crystals) can strongly damp the rotational and vibrational motions of the radical. Static aspects will be treated in the following, whereas the last aspect will be tackled in the section devoted to all the dynamical effects. 

A purely organic chiral nitroxide which shows liquid crystalline behaviour as well as intriguing magnetic properties and a dependence on the enantiomeric nature has been reported [180]. The reason for studying the compounds was to increase the sensitivity of mesophases to magnetic and electric fields. The racemic modification of the radical, which displays a nematic phase, proved to be more sensitive to alignment than the cholesteric phase with the enantiomers present. It was proposed that the compounds may also be used to study the dynamic nature of mesophases by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy.
