          <dc:description>Chapter III describes a series of 1,3-, 2,5-, and 2,4-dimethylene five-member heterocycles as new ferromagnetic coupling units. Full geometry optimization of structures with heteroatoms ranging from Be to O and from Mg to S at the CASSCF level with energy calculation at the MCQPDT2 level allowed for the discovery of four triplet ground state 2,5-dimethylene heterocycles. The series of 2,4-dimethylene heterocycles yields a family of acid-base driven magnetic switches in which the ground state multiplicity can be changed with protonation, a previously unknown phenomenon. Analysis of the wavefunction revealed that these seemingly disparate groups belong to one superfamily and their properties can be described by a single relationship. The energetic limits of the singlet and triplet preference are found to be -55 kcal/mol and 13 kcal/mol.</dc:description>
