Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The alkylation of some mercury acylates with alkyl halides in THF was studied.

  2. 2.

    The mercury acylates can be regarded as being intramolecular electron-donor-acceptor (EDA) complexes, in which the carbonyl oxygen atom plays the role of donor, while the mercury atom plays the role of acceptor. The EDA interaction is determined by the electron density on the carbonyl oxygen, i.e., by the strength of the acid.
