Conclusions

Relativistic effects can destabilize the π-complexes of allyl mercury compounds and weaken the effects of σ, π conjugation, which leads to a decrease in the first ionization potentials; their effect on the distribution of electron density in the allyl mercury molecule (manifested, in particular, by a decrease in the positive charge on the mercury atom) is almost independent of the conformation of the molecule.
