Conclusions

  1. 1.

    From a comparison of the constants of the nitrogen splitting, it has been shown that in the radical anion of nitrocyclopropane delocalization of the unpaired electron over the three-membered ring comparable with that in nitroolefins is observed. The EPR spectrum with HFS for the protons of the ring has been obtained in dimethylformamide.

  2. 2.

    In the radical anions of tertiary nitroalkanes a decrease in the nitrogen splitting with the introduction of electronegative substituents has been observed.
