Abstract
Abstract15N‐labeled tetrasulfur tetranitride (S415N4) was synthesized by reacting S2Cl2 with 15NH3. The reaction was finalized with 14NH3. The successful labeling was confirmed by solution 15N nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. S415N4 was used for the synthesis of poly(sulfur nitride) S15Nx via the intermediate species of S2N2. It was a topochemical polymerization in the solid state. The isotope ratio in the labeled polymer was obtained by laser deposition ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectroscopy. Solid‐state 15N NMR spectroscopy of S15Nx indicates that at least three different chemical environments for 15N atoms are present in the crystals. Finally, SNx was polymerized in the presence of two other superconductors, MgB2 and yttrium barium copper oxide (YBCO), which demonstrates the capability of SNx for grain boundary engineering.
