In the title compound, [HgCl(2)(C(5)H(12)N(2)S)(2)], the Hg(II) atom is located on a twofold rotation axis and is bonded in a distorted tetra-hedral coordination mode to two chloride ions and to two tetra-methyl-thio-urea (tmtu) mol-ecules through their S atoms. The crystal structure is stabilized by C-H⋯N and C-H⋯S hydrogen bonds.

In the title compound, [CdI(2)(C(5)H(12)N(2)S)(2)], the Cd(II) ion is located on a twofold rotation axis and is coordinated in a distorted tetra-hedral mode by two iodide ions and by two tetra-methyl-thio-urea (tmtu) ligands through their S atoms. The crystal structure is stabilized by C-H⋯N and C-H⋯S hydrogen bonds.

The mercury (II) complex, Hg (Meca2en)I2 (1), containing bidentate Schiff base ligand  Meca2en = N,N′-bis[(E)-2-benzylidenepropylidene]ethane-1,2-diamine, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses (CHN) and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The crystal structure of 1 was determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Structural investigation shows that 1 crystallizes in a monoclinic s...
