6-oxoverdazyls are stable free radicals with potential application as spin labels, in charge storage and in advanced magnetic materials. The synthesis of 1,5-dicarboxylic substituted 6-oxoverdazyl free radicals may provide a route to increase the water solubility and modify the metal binding characterisitics of verdazyls. We report our progress toward this synthetic goal.
