Bis(2-amino-3-methyl-pyridine-κN(1))dichloridomercury(II).
In the title compound, [HgCl(2)(C(6)H(8)N(2))(2)], the two independent Hg(II) cations are each located on a twofold rotation axis and coordinated by two pyridine N atoms from two 2-amino-3-methyl-pyridine ligands and two Cl(-) anions in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. An intra-molecular N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bond occurs in each independent complex mol-ecule. Inter-molecular N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds occur in the crystal structure.
