Dibromidobis{1-[4-(pyridin-4-yl)phenyl]ethanone-κN}mercury(II)

In the title compound, [HgBr2(C13H11NO)2], the HgII atom adopts a four-coordinated HgN2Br2 geometry, formed by two pyridine N atoms from two ligands and two bromide anions. The complex is located on a twofold axis. The coordination geometry is close to forming a see-saw (SS-4) polyhedron, the symmet...

description In the title compound, [HgBr2(C13H11NO)2], the HgII atom adopts a four-coordinated HgN2Br2 geometry, formed by two pyridine N atoms from two ligands and two bromide anions. The complex is located on a twofold axis. The coordination geometry is close to forming a see-saw (SS-4) polyhedron, the symmetry-related organic ligands being almost perpendicular; the dihedral angles between the two pyridine rings and between the two benzene rings are 85.5 (4) and 87.7 (4)°, respectively. Within the organic ligand, the pyridine ring is nearly coplanar with the benzene ring [dihedral angle = 13.1 (8)°]. In the crystal, the molecular complexes are connected through weak intermolecular C—H...Br contacts.
