Abstrakt: Electron spin relaxation times are reported for the SO2 radical in solid Na2S2O4 and K2S2O5, and the SO3 radicals in Na2S2O5, and K2S2O5. Echo envelope modulation was observed for the radicals in the Na+ salts and characterized by HYSCORE. Tm and T1 were measured using spin echo methods from 40 to 293 K and by long-pulse saturation recovery at 293 K. At low temperature Tm for the radicals in K2S2O5 (~ 14 μs) is longer than for the radicals in Na2S2O5 (Tm ~ 7 μs) or Na2S2O4 (Tm ~ 4 μs), which is attributed to the low magnetic moment of K+. The shorter value of Tm in Na2S2O4 is attributed in part to higher spin concentration. Tm decreases with increasing temperature as T1 approaches Tm. In each lattice there is a distribution of spin lattice relaxation times that may be due to distributions in interspin distances. The long components in the T1 distributions are longer for SO3 than for SO2. In 0.5 M NaOH solution at 293 K SO2 has a relaxation-determined Lorentzian peak-to-peak linewidth of about 0.7 G, and T1 ~ T2 ~ 100 ns. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
