Notes:
The symmetrization reaction of organomercury(II) chlorides (RHgCl) to R2Hg and HgCl2 in toluene solution under identical conditions using a basic alumina column has been studiedin order to compare the effect of the nature of the R groups on the extent of symmetrization. The efficiency of symmetrization depends markedly on the electron-withdrawing nature ofR, varying from 90-94% for R = trichlorovinyl or phenyl to 11% for R = 2,6-dimethylphenyl.© 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
