Abstract :

To understand the role of hydrogen interactions as compared to covalent bonds, series of mercuric halides based inorganic–organic hyid derivatives have been selected and their single crystal X–Ray data were obtained from Camidge Structure Data Centre, U.K. The structural data were simulated by using crystallographic software and the geometry of secondary interaction were analyzed for HgCl2 , HgBr2 , HgI2 based inorganic–organic hyid materials. The calculated average value of bond distance Hg…Cl = 2.64Å, Hg…Br = 2.63Å and Hg…I =2.75Å. The calculated average value for X–Hg…X bond angle = 108.3° for HgCl, 138.65° for HgBr and 109.95° for HgI. The detailed hydrogen bond analysis shows that strong–to–moderate hydrogen interactions exists in HgI, strong interactions in HgBr and weak hydrogen interactions in HgCl hyid derivatives.
