HoHg2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. Ho(1) is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to ten equivalent Hg(1) atoms. Hg(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Ho(1) atoms.
HoHg2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. Ho(1) is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to ten equivalent Hg(1) atoms. There are eight shorter (3.20 Å) and two longer (3.32 Å) Ho(1)-Hg(1) bond lengths. Hg(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Ho(1) atoms.
