The title compound, [Hg2(C11H16O2PS2)4], is a dinuclear complex with a distorted tetra-hedral geometry around each Hg(II) atom. Although the two Hg(II) atoms are surrounded by the same ligand, two different coordination modes are observed: one is chelating and the other bridging. The Hg-S bonds form two distinct pairs of long and short bonds. One pair includes both chelating and bridging Hg-S bonds with approximately equal bond lengths of 2.4042 (8) and 2.3997 (7) Å, respectively. The other pair ...[more]
