13-10 Addendum Chapter 13
S 2 N 2 Polymerization and Electron Conduction in the (SN) x Polymer
In Section 13-8(c), increased-valence structure (74) for the (SN) x polymer is
derived from the Lewis structure (72). The derivation of structure (74) via S 2 N 2
polymerization, and electron conduction in the (SN) x polymer, are displayed in
Fig. 13-7.
