Title: Materials Data on HgCl2 by Materials Project

Abstract

HgCl2 is Cyanogen Chloride-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four mercuric chloride molecules. Hg2+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two Cl1- atoms. Both Hg–Cl bond lengths are 2.28 Å. There are two inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Hg2+ atom. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Hg2+ atom.
