(Nitrato-kappaO)bis(pyridine-2-carboxamide-kappa2N1,O)mercury(II) nitrate.
In the title compound, [Hg(NO3)(C6H6N2O)2]NO3, the Hg(II) atom is five-coordinate. The distorted square-pyramidal mercury(II) coordination environment is achieved by two N,O-bidentate picolinamide ligands, with one O-monodentate nitrate ion in the apical position. A seven-coordinate extended coordination environment is completed by two additional weak Hg...O interactions, one from the coordinated nitrate ion and one from the other nitrate ion, to give seven-coordination. The molecules are linked into a two-dimensional network by N-H...O hydrogen bonds.
