| Abstract: | Homopolycondensation of 1-halogenopropane-2-thiones was studied; the polymers obtained were structurally characterized by ESR, UV, and IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and electrochemical methods. Their molecular masses, dark conductivities, and photoconductivities were determined. The capability for film formation on various substrates was investigated. These polymers were found to be new organic metals (Hal=I), semiconductors (Hal=Cl and Br), and photoconductors (Hal=Cl, Br). Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.
