A series of aromatic compounds possessing imide and quinone electron-acceptor groups were prepared using Diels-Alder reactions.These linear, aromatic compounds were studied using cyclic voltammetry and reduced electrochemically to produce solutions of the corresponding anion radicals.The anion radical near-infrared spectra were recorded and showed bands over the range 700-1700 nm (log ε 3.8-4.6).Most of the spectra are interpreted to arise from ?*-?* transitions.The spectra and Ε0 values are consistent with ground states in which the odd electron is delocalized over two electrophores.
