摘要
The effects of relativity and electron correlation in diatomic mercury HgX compounds and in linear HgX2 and Hg2X2 compounds (X=H, F, Cl, CH3 and CF3) are investigated using relativistic pseudopotential and local density approximation calculations. The stability of the HgHg bond in Hg2X2 is found to be influenced significantly by the electronegativity of the ligand X. Electronegative ligands such as fluorine (X=F) lead to strong mercury based radical character in the HgX monomer unit supporting an HgHg bond to form a stable Hg2X2. This effect diminishes for less electronegative ligands such as X=H or CH3 where the unpaired electron is localized more towards the ligand X. As a consequence, HgHg bonding in Hg2(CH3)2 is very weak which may explain why organomercury compounds of the form Hg2R2 (R=any organic group) have not yet been observed. Among these organomercury compounds Hg2(CF3)2 will be most stable. Relativistic and electron correlations effects are shown to have a significant influence on this trend. Hg2(CR3)2 is isolobal to Au2(PR3)2 and it is proposed that the Hg2(CR3)2 unit may be stabilized at other metal centres.
