Popis: A series of new five-coordinated mercury(ΙΙ) coordination complexes (Hg(TpzT)(SCN)2·H2O (1), Hg(TpzT)I2·H2O (2), Hg(TpzT)Br2·H2O (3), 2Hg(TpzT)Cl2·HgCl2·2H2O (4)) have been synthesized by self-assembling the flexible ligand 2,4,6-tri(pyrazole-1-yl)-1,3,5-triazine (TpzT) with HgX2 (X = SCN, I, Br, Cl). Various weak interactions including hydrogen bonds (O−H···X, C−H···X), π−π interactions, and S···S contacts play significant roles in the final topological structures of the four compounds. Unexpectedly, 5 and 6 were obtained accidentally by self-assembling TpzT with MX2 (Zn(NO3)2·6H2O or CdI2) in methanol and were assessed by X-ray crystallography, which indicated that there are nucleophilic substitution reactions. Surprisingly, all the Hg−N bonds of approximately 2.70 A in length formed by the tridentate ligand and mercuric salt are rather unusual. So density functional theory (DFT) calculations (Amsterdam density functional, ADF) were employed to study the bond dissociation energies (BDE) of Hg−N bonds in...
