Abstract

The molecular structure of the title compound, [HgCl₂ (C₃H₈N₂S) ₂], has point group symmetry 2, with the twofold rotation axis passing through the HgII atom. The latter is coordinated by two Cl atoms and two N,N'-dimethylthiourea (Dmtu) ligands through their S atoms, defining a distorted tetrahedral coordination sphere with bond angles in the range 102.47 (4)-118.32 (4)°. Intraand intermolecular hydrogen bonds of the type N-H···Cl with S(6) and R₂²(12) ring motifs are present. The intermolecular contacts make up polymeric chains extending parallel to [101].
