Hg3Se2I2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Hg2+ sites. In the first Hg2+ site, Hg2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Se2- and two equivalent I1- atoms. Both Hg–Se bond lengths are 2.60 Å. Both Hg–I bond lengths are 3.19 Å. In the second Hg2+ site, Hg2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Se2- and four I1- atoms. Both Hg–Se bond lengths are 2.57 Å. There are a spread of Hg–I bond distances ranging from 3.19–3.83 Å. In the third Hg2+ site, Hg2+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Se2- and three I1- atoms. Both Hg–Se bond lengths are 2.59 Å. There are a spread of Hg–I bond distances ranging from 3.12–3.82 Å. Se2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Hg2+ atoms. There are three inequivalent I1- sites. In the first I1- site, I1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to four Hg2+ atoms. In the second I1- site, I1- is bonded in a distorted L-shaped geometry to four equivalent Hg2+ atoms. In the third I1- site, I1- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six Hg2+ atoms.
