Abstract

Polyerther-linked mercury(II) carbene complexes are synthesized by the reaction of carbene precursores with mercury(II) acetate. The binuclear carbene complexes with the chloride ion linkage are easily prepared by the reaction of mononuclear mercury carbene complexes with tetrabutylammoium chloride. The crystal structures reveal that the fluorescence of mercury complexes are related to the coordination mode of the ligands.
