conjugated

1. (organic chemistry, of an organic compound or part of such a compound) Containing one or more pairs of double bonds and/or lone pairs, each pair being separated by a single bond.Examples: "1991, J.-P. Aime, Structural Characterization of Conjugated Solutions, J. L. Brédas, R. Silbey (editors), Conjugated Polymers, Kluwer Academic, page 296, A major interest in the study of conjugated polymers in solution is the opportunity to investigate the relation between electronic properties and conformational disorder in low dimensional materials."; "2007, Kirk S.
