Abstract
In the crystal structure of the title polymeric complex, [Hg2(C10H6O6S2)(H2O)4]n, the metal atom of an H2O→Hg⋯Hg←H2O unit [Hg←Owater = 2.124 (7) A] is linked to the metal atom of an adjacent unit by two water molecules [Hg←Owater = 2.619 (7) and 2.872 (7) A], giving rise to a polycationic chain. Adjacent chains are linked through the dianion via a weaker interaction [Hg⋯Osulfonate = 3.062 (7) A] to form layers. The H2O→Hg⋯Hg←H2O unit, the (H2O→Hg)2 parallelogram and the dianion all lie on centres of inversion. Hydrogen bonding consolidates the layers of the structure into a three-dimensional network architecture.
