Synthesis, structure, luminescence, and electrochemical properties of polynuclear mercury(II) chalcogenolate complexes
Abstract
A series of novel polynuclear mercury(II) diimine complexes with bridging chalcogenolate ligands have been synthesized and characterized and their luminescence and electrochemical properties studied. The crystal structures of [Hg(μ-SC6H4OCH3-p)(bpy)]n[PF6]n and [Hg(μ-SeC6H5)(bpy)]n[PF6]n have also been determined (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine).
