Materials Data on MgHg6(N3O13)2 by Materials Project
MgO6(Hg3O)2(NO3)6 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of one magnesium;dihydroxide;tetrahydrate molecule, six nitric acid molecules, and two Hg3O clusters. In each Hg3O cluster, there are three inequivalent Hg sites. In the first Hg site, Hg is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O atom. The Hg–O bond length is 2.15 Å. In the second Hg site, Hg is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O atom. The Hg–O bond length is 2.15 Å. In the third Hg site, Hg is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O atom. The Hg–O bond length is 2.15 Å. O is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three Hg atoms.
