title: (5,5'-Dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine-κN,N')diiodidomercury(II).
abstract: In the mol-ecule of the title compound, [HgI(2)(C(12)H(12)N(2))], the Hg(II) atom is four-coordinated in a distorted tetra-hedral configuration by two N atoms from 5,5'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine and two I atoms. There is a π-π contact between pyridine rings of adjacent molecules [centroid-centroid distance = 3.723 (5) Å].
