Abstract
Bis(ethyldiazoacetate) mercury(II) is orthorhombic with the following unit cell data at 20 °C: Fdd2, a = 19.810(8), b = 14.387(5), c = 9.015(2) Å, V = 2569.3 Å3, ρ0 = 2.17(2), ρc = 2.21, Z = 8 ( λ = 0.70930 Å). The structure was solved by heavy atom methods and refined to R = 2.2% for 706 reflections. The molecule has a 2-fold axis of symmetry and all thermal parameters are large in the direction of this axis; diffuse scattering was observed in the rotation photograph taken about this axis. As expected the diazoacetate portion is planar.Keywords
