Crystal structure of bis-(thio-cyanato-?S)bis-(thio-urea-?S)mercury(II).
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: In the title complex, [Hg(NCS)2(CH4N2S)2], the Hg(II) atom is four-coordinated having an irregular four-coordinate geometry composed of four thione S atoms of two thio-cyanate groups and two thio-urea groups. The S-Hg-S angles are 172.02?(9)° for the trans-thio-cyanate S atoms and 90.14?(5)° for the cis-thio-urea S atoms. The mol-ecular structure is stabilized by an intra-molecular N-H?S hydrogen bond, which forms an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by a number of N-H?N and N-H?S hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional framework. The first report of the crystal structure of this compound appeared in 1966 [Korczynski (1966 ?). Rocz. Chem. 40, 547-569] with an extremely high R factor of 17.2%, and no mention of how the data were collected.
