The organic–inorganic hybrid polymers poly(metal tetrathiooxalates) , [M II (C 2 S 4 )] n , have so far only been available as insoluble and infusible powders, which restricts their applications. The first successful preparation—by a reactive self‐assembly process—of ultrathin films of the polymers (see Figure) is described and their interesting electrical and optical properties are presented.
