The chalcogen is sulfur.

 

It is even on wikipedia, although it doesn't have it's own page.

 

It is to the best of my knowledge not comercially available.

 

I am looking at what I think is the first published paper on it: september 2006

I have been looking this up for awhile now and have come to the conclusion that a polycyclic aromatic molecule WITHOUT HYDROGEN leads to a headache and confusion!

 

As cool as it is that UC crushed you guys, I wanted to acknowledge the above response as my personal favorite.

[hermanntrude]

[macscigirl]

I am a heterocyclic oligomer with a name which seems very appealing. VERY appealing ;0)

[macscigirl]

no clue!

[Xittenn]

heterocyclic bridged oligomer buckyballs?

[macscigirl]

thats appealing!!

[hermanntrude]

it's appeal is sixfold

[Xittenn]

Is that another hint or are you agreeing with macsci?

[insane_alien]

i'd say a hint

[hermanntrude]

hint.

 

I also contain carbon and sulfur, but unlike the last one, I contain hydrogen too

[macscigirl]

Ring cleavage??????

[Xittenn]

Would I be far off if I searched through Thiol containing Oligopeptides?

[hermanntrude]

Would I be far off if I searched through Thiol containing Oligopeptides?

 

yes. I guess you could call me a homooligomer, although i've never heard the term used before.

 

I am conductive, and consist of six five membered rings
