Abstract: | Oligosulfides derived from ethyne-1,2-dithiol were synthesized in up to 96% yield via insertion of elemental sulfur into the Na-Csp bond of sodium acetylides (HC≡CNa, NaC≡CSNa) in liquid ammonia, followed by hydrolysis and spontaneous oligomerization of ethynethiols, ethynedithiols, and mono-and bis-(polysulfanyl)ethynes (HC≡CSH, HSC≡CSH, HC≡CSxH, HSxC≡CSyH). The resulting polyenic oligosulfides were isolated as brown powders melting in the temperature range from 122 to 203°C and containing up to 77% of sulfur; they are sparingly soluble in organic solvents and are high-resistance semiconductors (10?13–10?14 S cm?1) possessing paramagnetic (1017–1018 spin g?1) and redox properties. According to the data of IR and ESR spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry, the oligomers obtained consist mainly of different oligosulfide units, including oligothienothiophene structures. They also ensure a high discharge capacity (345–720 mA h g?1) of lithium sulfur rechargeable batteries. |
