- Coronene (C24H12), a charge transfer complex with low-cost and high-performance energy storage, has recently attracted attention as a model molecule of graphene nano-flakes (GNFs). The stacking structures of the trimer radical cation correlate strongly with the conduction states of the GNFs. In the present paper, the structures and electronic states of the monomer, dimer and trimer radical cations of coronene were investigated by means of density functional theory calculations. In particular, the proton hyperfine coupling constants of these species were determined. The radical cation of coronene(+) (monomer) showed two structures corresponding to the (2)A(u) and B-2(3u) states due to the Jahn-Teller effect. The (2)A(u) state was more stable than the B-2(3u) state, although the energy difference between the two states was only 0.03 kcal mol(-1). The dimer and trimer radical cations took stacking structures distorted from a full overlap structure. The intermolecular distances of the molecular planes were 3.602 angstrom (dimer) and 3.564 and 3.600 angstrom (trimer). The binding energies of the dimer and trimer were calculated to be 8.7 and 13.3 kcal mol(-1), respectively. The spin density was equivalently distributed on both coronene planes in the dimer cation. In contrast, the central plane in the trimer cation had a larger spin density, rho = 0.72, than the upper and lower planes, both with rho = 0.14. The proton hyperfine coupling constants calculated from these structures and the electronic states of the monomer, dimer, and trimer radical cations of coronene were in excellent agreement with previous ESR spectra of coronene radical cations. The structures and electronic states of (coronene)(n)(+) (n = 1-3) were discussed on the basis of the theoretical results.
