π−π Interactions Affect Coordination Geometries

π−π Interactions Affect Coordination Geometries

We explore the effect of π−π interactions in the complexes of mercury halides containing the N-(naphthyl)-2-pyrazine carboxamide ligand (L1) in the coordination geometry of the central metal. Results show molecular packing features have a dramatic effect on coordination geometries and that the π−π s...

Zusammenfassung:We explore the effect of π−π interactions in the complexes of mercury halides containing the N-(naphthyl)-2-pyrazine carboxamide ligand (L1) in the coordination geometry of the central metal. Results show molecular packing features have a dramatic effect on coordination geometries and that the π−π stacking interaction affects the geometry around the mercury.
