Popis: This study investigated the synthesis and structural characterization of mercury(II) selenolate molecular clusters and mixed mercury(II) seleninate/selenolate polymeric clusters. The novel tetranuclear mercury(II) selenolate molecular clusters [Hg4Br4(SePh)4(phen)2] (1) and [Hg4I4(SePh)4(phen)2] (2) were prepared by reacting Hg(SePh)2 with mercury salts and 1,10-phenanthroline. The mixed mercury(II) seleninate/selenolate polymeric clusters [Hg2Br(O2SePh)(SePh)2]n (3) and [Hg2I(O2SePh)(SePh)2]n (4) were synthesized by reacting Hg(SePh)2 with 3-chloroperbenzoic acid and mercury salts. Compounds 3 and 4 represent new examples of extended one-dimensional chains of closed ME (M = mercury; E = Se) systems, which result from the partial oxidation of mercury phenylselenolate clusters. The compounds 1 − 4 have been characterized by spectroscopic and crystallographic methods. Optical band gap values for 1 − 4 were estimated by UV–vis spectroscopy in the solid state.
