✦ Synopsis


The reaction of I,3-dimethylimidazolium chloride with Hg(O,CCH,), afforded a bis(carbene)mercuty (II) complex (2), which is characterized by multinuclear N M R spectroscopy (IH, 13C, 15N, and 199Hg) and by single-crystal X-ray analysis. As a consequence of chloride-ion interaction with the mercury center, the C,-Hg-C, angle in 2 is reduced to 161.4 (3)" compared to its near-linear value in complex 4 that contains perchlorate counterions.

The C, resonance in the mercury complex 2 moves tipfield by 36.96 ppm relative to the parent carbene (2),, with a large lJHgC = 2741.18 Hz.

The reaction of PhN 3 (H)C 6 H 4 N 3 (H)Ph with Hg(NO 3 ) 2 in THF in the presence of triethylamine yields {Hg[PhN 3 C 6 H 4 N 3 (H)Ph](NO 3 )} as a yellow powder that can be recrystallized from THF/acetone. The crystals belong to the monoclinic system, space group P2 1 with the cell dimensions a Ο­
