Abstract—

In this study, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) hyperfine coupling constants (hfccs) of fluorinated nitrobenzene and nitrophenol radical anions were calculated using Density Functional Theory (DFT) with B3LYP functional at 6-31+G(d), 6-31++G(d,p), LanL2DZ, LanL2MB, EPR-II, and EPR-III basis sets. The obtained results were evaluated based on their agreement with the experimental data. The LanL2DZ was identified as the optimal basis set. Using this set, the EPR and Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) analysis of all the radical anions were performed. The simulated EPR spectra, generated using the calculated hfccs, were found to be in good agreement with the experimental spectra. A theoretical equation for the hfcc of fluorine atom was proposed and validated against multiple experimental datasets with high accuracy.
