A paramagnetic lamellar polymer with a high semiconductivity
Abstract
The polymer [Ni2(C4N2H3S)4] n with excellent electrical conductivity and ferromagnetic interaction between the nickel(II) centers has been prepared by the hydrothermal reaction of Ni(O2CMe)2 with pyrimidine-2-thiol in DMF–H2O; X-ray diffraction shows that the polymer possesses a lamellar structure formed from the conjunction system of pyrimidine rings and Ni(II) centers.
