Abstract: Chemistry and materials science of stable 1,3,2-benzodi-thiazolyls (Wolmershäuser radicals) are discussed. These easily-accessible chromogenic and redox-active compounds are promising building blocks of conductive and magnetic molecular materials including spin-crossover materials. Their comparison with 1,2,3-isomers (Herz radicals), also involved in contemporary materials science, is given.

Keywords: 1,3,2-benzodithiazolyls, chalcogen–nitrogen π-heterocycles, conducting molecular materials, magnetic molecular materials, structure, synthesis, reactivity, Wolmershäuser radicals.
