N2 - A solution of (OxS)2Ca·2HMPA [OxS- = 2-mercaptobenzoxazolyl, C6H4O·(C=S)=N-; HMPA = O:P (NMe2)3] dissolves solid HgCl2 to give [(OxS)CaCl·2HMPA]2·(OxS)2Ca· (HgCl2)2, 1; in the solid state, the Cl atoms of intact HgCl2 molecules coordinate to Ca2+ ions (which retain links to the N atoms of OxS- ligands) and the S centres are thereby displaced from Ca2+ and capture the Hg.
