“…When this reaction was repeated by Dirk et al [231], they confirmed the formation of a red powder which subsequently turned into a grey solid. The X-ray diffraction results showed both red and grey solids to be amorphous contrary to the crystalline red solid reported previously [229,230]. With X-ray evidence, the red or grey powders have been proposed to be poly(methylene ditelluride): This polymer showed one endothermic transition at 55 °C and several exothermic transitions at 100, 130, 175, 190 and 230 °C.…”

The present review articulates the syntheses and properties of industrially important disulfide and tetrasulfide polymers. The diselenide and ditelluride polymers have also been reviewed, for the first time, so that a comprehensive view on the polymers containing group VIA elements can be obtained. The latter two polymers are gaining considerable current attention due to their semi-conducting properties. The emphasis has been made to sift through the developments in the last ten years or so to get the latest flavour in these rapidly developing polymers. We have also attempted to bring to the fore several contradicting results, like, for example, the crystallinity of ditelluride polymers, to clear the mist in such reports. We hope that this review will help those working in the field to assess the progress achieved in this area and that it may also provide useful orientation for those who wish to become involved.
