Abstract
Parthiocyanogen or polythiocyanogen (SCN) x has been synthesized by the anodic oxidation of NaSCN solutions in methanol. The structure of parathiocyanogen (SCN) x has been studied by means of elemental analysis, IR, UV, 13C NMR and ESR spectroscopy and also by comparison with a triazine-based model compound. All data collected clearly show that parathiocyanogen is structurally different from the triazine-based structure. On the basis of the data collected, the most probable structure should be a linear one, very similar to the one accepted to polysulphur nitride. Upon doping with iodine vapour the specific conductivity of parathiocyanogen increases by several orders of magnitude, as expected from a semi-conductive polymer.
