Mercury and organomercury drivatives of cyclodiazahexathiane and cycloazaheptathiane: preparation and decomposition
Abstract
New mercury derivatives of cycloazathianes have been prepared: viz, inorganic mercury derivaties of 1,4- and 1,5-(HN)2S6; (PhHgN)S7 and 1,3-, 1,4-, and 1,5-(PhHgN)2S6; and (MeHgN)S7 and and 1,4-(MeHgN)2S6. The compounds are readily isolated but decompose at room temperature at varying rates, giving rise to mixtures of known sulphur nitrides. The decomposition products were unsuccessfully examined for new sulphur nitrides such as the cyclic ‘aromatic’ compounds predicted by Banister.
