Materials Data on HgH12C2(Br2N3)2 by Materials Project
HgBr4(CN3H6)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of eight guanidinium molecules and four HgBr4 clusters. In each HgBr4 cluster, Hg2+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four Br1- atoms. There are two shorter (2.63 Å) and two longer (2.74 Å) Hg–Br bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Br1- sites. In the first Br1- site, Br1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Hg2+ atom. In the second Br1- site, Br1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Hg2+ atom.
