Summary

Linear, low molecular weight poly(2-furyl)methylene sulfide was obtained bubbling hydrogen sulfide by through aqueous furfuraldehyde solutions. The product was soluble in chloroform and acetone. Characterization was carried out by elemental analysis, IR, NMR 1H and 13C (DEPT) techniques. Evidence for the presence of OH and SH terminal groups was found. This fact points to a plausible mechanism through the initial formation of unstable α-hydroxythiols. A scheme for the polymerization mechanism is offered.
