摘要:
The title compound, [Hg2Cl4(C6H7NS)(2)]. was obtained from the reaction of HgCl2 with benzothiazole and studied by X-ray diffraction and IR spectroscopy. The molecule is centrosymmetric, with Hg-mu-Cl distances of 2.720(1) and 2.976(1)Angstrom. The 2-aminobenzenethiol ligand (existing in a zwitterionic form) is bonded to mercury through the S atom, with an Hg-S distance of 2.340(2)Angstrom. There are N-H...Cl hydrogen bonds involving the bridging Cl atoms, as well as a bifurcated hydrogen bond involving the terminal Cl atoms.
