Abstract

The single crystals of the compound 2HgCl2 . HgO were studied by the use of the X-ray methods. The dimensions of the unit cell quoted in the literature were confirmed. The crystals are cubic, the space group being T4-P213. The twodimensional Patterson synthesis allowed the preliminary x, y coordinates of mercury atoms to be determined. The complete X-ray analysis of this compound as well as of the other mercury oxyhalides is in progress.
