AbstractWe report about the synthesis and crystal structure determination of Hg2(NCN)Cl2 (P21/c (No. 14), Z = 4, a = 806.7(1), b = 907.1(2), c = 788.0(1) pm, β = 106.446(3)°, 1374 independent reflections, 67 variables, R1 = 0.0463) and Hg3(NCN)2Cl2 (Pca21 (No. 29), Z = 4, a = 702.0(2), b = 1078.5(2), c = 1050.3(2) pm, 1977 independent reflections, 71 variables, R1 = 0.0380). Both compounds contain infinite -Hg-NCN-Hg- zigzag chains which are linked by additional Hg atoms to result in two-dimensional frameworks characterized by 20-membered rings sharing edges. The remarkably flexible structural backbone [Hg3(NCN)2]2+ hosts additional Cl! anions and HgCl2 molecules in Hg2(NCN)Cl2 but only Cl- anions in Hg3(NCN)2Cl2, by that reaching a high packing efficiency in both cases.While Hg2(NCN)Cl2 exclusively contains carbodiimide N=C=N2- species, Hg3(NCN)2Cl2 is the first structural example of an inorganic network built up from both carbodiimide N=C=N2- and cyanamide N-C≡N2- groups.
