In the solid state, at room temperature, the radicals 2,3-naphthalene-1,3,2-dithiazolyl (NDTA) and quinoxaline-1,3,2-dithiazolyl (QDTA) are not dimerized; discrete molecules of NDTA are packed in a herringbone fashion, while those of QDTA adopt a slipped pi-stack moth; NDTA is essentially paramagnetic at ambient temperatures, with weak antiferromagnetism developing below 190 K; QDTA is diamagnetic at low temperature, but limited paramagnetism sets in above 120 K.
