Abstract

The structure of the title compound, (C(14)H(16)N)(2)[HgCl(2)(SO(4))], consists of an infinite chain propagating along the c direction, containing Hg(II) ions tetra-coordinated by two bridging O atoms of bis-monodentate sulfate anions and two chloride ligands. In the the crystal, N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding between the cations and the anionic chains consolidates the packing. The crystal structure was determined from an inversion twin with approximately equal twin domains.
