by Barclay, Tosha Madeva; Burgess, I. J.; Cordes, A. Wallace; Oakley, Richard T.; Reed, Robert W.

Naphtho[2,1-d:6,5-d']bis([1,2,3]dithiazole) NT, prepared by a 'double Herz' condensation of 2,6-diaminonaphthalene with S2Cl2, can be electrooxidized to the conductive, pi-stacked mixed valence salt [NT](3)[BF4](2).
