In the neutral title complex, [HgCl(2)(C(12)H(11)NO(3))], the Hg(II) ion is penta-coordinated by two Cl atoms, one N atom and two weakly coordinating O atoms from the methyl 2-(quinolin-8-yl-oxy)acetate ligand. The coordination around the Hg(II) ion may be described as highly distorted trigonal-bipyramidal. Centrosymmetric dimers are formed by an additional weak Hg⋯Cl inter-action, leading to a distorted octa-hedral coordination geometry around the Hg(II) ion. ...[more]
