✦ Synopsis

Tetraselenonaphthacene and iodanil become highly conductive at pressures above 400 kilobars. The lowest electrical resistivity is 1 X IO" ohm cm in the former and 5 X 10" ohm cm in the latter, respectively. In the curve showing the change in resistance with increasing pressure for tetraselenonaphtbacene there appears a broad and shallow minimum at pressures between 300 and 500 kilobars.
