Popis: Combination of the hydrochloride salt of cysteamine (1) with HgCl2 in water affords the unique compound, [Hg{S(CH2)2NH3}2](Cl)2 (2) in which the SHgS angle is nearly linear. The ammonium portion of the molecule forms short hydrogen bonding contacts with the sulfur atoms. A related S···H bond is observed in the structure of the free ligand 1 indicating that such bonding does not require the presence of a metal. The compounds were characterized with spectroscopic ( 1 H NMR, IR) and physical techniques (Mp, CH-analysis) as well as X-ray diffractometry. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
