Hirshfeld surfaces and 2D fingerprint plots are used to analysis of intermolecular interactions in two new amidophosphinates: (2–Cl–C6H4O)P(O)[X]2 {X = NHC5H10 (I), [X]2= NHCH2CH2CH2NH (II)}. The N—H…O=P hydrogen bonds are ...

Mercury(II) exhibits a strong preference for linear coordination which has been attributed to relativistic effects splitting the 6p orbitals and promoting sp hybridization. If the two ligands attached to the mercury(II) ...
