by Bryan, C. D.; Cordes, A. W.; Haddon, R. C.; Hicks, R. G.; Oakley, R. T.; Palstra, T. T. M.; Perel, A. J.

The reaction of oxamidrazone with sulfur dichloride affords 4,4'-bis(1,2,3,5-dithiadiazolium) dichloride, which can be reduced with triphenylantimony to the corresponding bis(1,2,3,5-dithiadiazolyl) diradical; the solid state structure and transport properties of the dimer [S2N2CCN2S2](2) are reported.
