Comparison of the proton Mims ENDOR spectra of P1H, P2H, and P3H recorded at magnetic field positions corresponding to the Z transition and visualization of the spin density distributions in P1H, P2H, and P3H calculated by DFT. The ENDOR spectra were recorded at 20 K and pulse lengths of 16 ns were applied. To compensate for blind spots, three ENDOR spectra with τ values of 120, 180, and 240 ns were averaged in all cases. Although calculations predict the spin density to localize on the central unit in P3H as shown in the figure, solvent effects or changes of the geometry in solution might lead to localization of the triplet state on any one of the three units.
