Strong spin-dependent delocalization (double exchange) was previously demonstrated for the complexes, NN-Bridge-SQ-CoIII(py)2Cat-Bridge-NN (where NN = S = 1/2 nitronylnitroxide, Bridge = 1,4-phenylene and single bond, SQ = S = 1/2 orthobenzosemiquinone, CoIII = low-spin d6 cobalt 3+, and Cat = diamagnetic catecholate). The mixed-valent S = 1/2 SQ-CoIII-Cat triad results in ferromagnetic alignment of localized (pinned) NN spins which are ~22Å apart (Bridge = Ph). Herein, we report similar ferromagnetic coupling of localized verdazyl (Vdz) radical spins. Furthermore, the origin of the magnetic exchange results from a second order vibronic effect (pseudo Jahn-Teller effect) in [Vdz-diox-Ru(py)2-diox-Vdz]0, which possesses a diamagnetic [diox-Ru-diox]0 triad by virtue of strong antiferromagnetic SQ-RuIII exchange.
