The discovery of the chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect has expanded the list of applications for chiral structures, opening promising avenues for their exploitation in molecular spintronics. In this work, the persistent propeller-like organic perchlorotriphenylmethyl (PTM) radical is investigated as a potential spin filter combining chirality and paramagnetism. In particular, two different PTM derivatives, mono- and bis-functionalized, with one or two terminal alkyne groups have been used for the preparation of enantioenriched solid-state assemblies. The analysis of their chiroptical properties reveals that the functionalization does not play a crucial role in their final conformational stability and highlights the dissimilarities of the racemization barriers in solution and solid states. Spin-dependent electrochemical and charge transport measurements of enantioenriched PTM-based self-assembled monolayers did not reveal the existence of the CISS effect. Density functional theory quantum transport calculations show that the most dominant contribution to the spin polarization would not be CISS-related polarization, but the one intrinsically associated with the radical spin. Nevertheless, at room temperature this contribution is affected by thermal fluctuations averaging to a net zero spin polarization. 22024-01-0120242024-01-01Articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://ddd.uab.cat/record/302033https://dx.doi.org/urn:doi:10.1039/d4tc01389areponame:Dipòsit Digital de Documents de la UABinstname:Universitat Autònoma de BarcelonaInglésengAgència de Gestió d'Ajuts Universitaris i de Recerca https://doi.org/10.13039/501100003030 2021/SGR-00443Agencia Estatal de Investigación https://doi.org/10.13039/501100011033 PID2019-111682RB-I00Agencia Estatal de Investigación https://doi.org/10.13039/501100011033 PID2022-141393OB-I00Agencia Estatal de Investigación https://doi.org/10.13039/501100011033 PID2021-127521NB-I00Agencia Estatal de Investigación https://doi.org/10.13039/501100011033 PID2021-125604NB-I00Agencia Estatal de Investigación https://doi.org/10.13039/501100011033 PID2019-109539GB-C43Agencia Estatal de Investigación https://doi.org/10.13039/501100011033 PID2022-141712NB-C21Agencia Estatal de Investigación https://doi.org/10.13039/501100011033 TED2021-131323B-I00Agencia Estatal de Investigación https://doi.org/10.13039/501100011033 CEX2019-000917-SEuropean Commission https://doi.org/10.13039/501100000780 754397Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación https://doi.org/10.13039/501100004837 CEX2018-000805-Mopen accesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Aquest document està subjecte a una llicència d'ús Creative Commons.
