STRUCTURAL STUDY OF POLY(CARBON DISELENIDE)

Abstract
Poly(carbon diselenide) is metallic in an ordered crystalline state and it becomes less conductive when crystalline imperfection increases. EXAFS spectra show the existence of Se–Se bonds and the co-ordination number of Se in metallic poly(carbon diselenide) is almost 2.0, indicating the infinite chains of Se atoms. Extended Huckel calculation gave a reasonable interpretation of the metallic nature of crystalline poly(carbon diselenide).
