Abstract
Most free radicals contain several magnetic nuclei; in some molecules these may be grouped into magnetically equivalent sets. Sometimes the nuclei may be equivalent by virtue of the symmetry of the molecule; in other cases the equivalence may be accidental. The hyperfine splittings from radicals having numerous magnetic nuclei may give spectra rich in line components. The analysis of these spectra may be straightforward; more often a successful analysis requires some experience. This chapter presents a large number of experimental spectra ranging from the simple to the complex. The reader is urged to consider each spectrum carefully and to understand its analysis before proceeding to the next. Section 4–7 presents a number of rules which should aid in the analysis of complex spectra.
