Notes:
Single crystals of mercury(II) polyphosphate, Hg(PO3)2, were prepared from HgO in an acidic polyphosphate melt. The structure is isotypic with α-Cd(PO3)2 and comprises infinite polyphosphate chains with a period of four phosphate units. Chains of the form 1∞[PO3−] are linked by Hg2+ to form a three-dimensional network. The Hg atom is located at the centre of a distorted octahedron of O atoms with distances 2.173 (5) 〈 (Hg—O)mean 〈 2.503 (6) Å. The [HgO6] polyhedra form zigzag-like chains of the form 1∞[HgO2O4/2] parallel to the c axis.
