Abstract
Described herein are methods of generating 4,4'-bipyridinium radical cations (BIPY), and methods for utilizing the radical-radical interactions between two or more BIPYradical cations that ensue for the creation of novel materials for applications in nanotechnology. Synthetic methodologies, crystallographic engineering techniques, methods of physical characterization, and end uses are described.
