Abstract
The solvothermal reaction of 4,4'-bipyridine (Bipy) and mercury nitrate in a mixed acetonitrile/water solution leads to a novel mercury coordination compound with the in situ formation of cyanide ions Hg(Bipy)(CN)2 (1). Its structure is determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), and further characterized by powder XRD, elemental analysis, and IR spectroscopy. Compound 1 exhibits a 1D zigzag [Hg(Bipy)(CN)2]n chain structure. The solid-state photoluminescent properties of 1 are also investigated.
