Materials Data on Hg2BCl by Materials Project
HgBHgCl crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of four boron molecules, four mercury molecules, and one HgCl framework. In the HgCl framework, Hg2+ is bonded to four equivalent Cl1- atoms to form corner-sharing HgCl4 tetrahedra. All Hg–Cl bond lengths are 3.09 Å. Cl1- is bonded to four equivalent Hg2+ atoms to form corner-sharing ClHg4 tetrahedra.
