The radical anion M •⊖ and the radical cation M •⊕ have so far both been detected for few molecules M. Methylthio‐substituted π‐systems such as (1) represent a new type of such molecules. Comparison of the calculated charge distributions for M, M •⊖ , and M •⊕ with the experimental spin densities ρ ⊖ and ρ ⊕ is of topical interest.
