Abstract: The ESR spectroscopic data relating to studies on the chemical and electronic structures of radical-anions derived from organic compounds have been examined. These studies include those on the distribution of unpaired electron density in radical-anions, the effect of substituents on such distribution, the hindered motion of groups and fragments in radical-anions, the effect of the solvent on the distribution of unpaired electron density, and the nature of the association of radical-anions with metal cations. Among problems of the chemical behaviour of radical-anions, electron-exchange reactions between the radical-anions and the initial molecules have been considered.
