PhHgOAc is converted into Ph2Hg via a symmetrization process, in the absence of an auxiliary ligand, at 6.5≥pH\textgreater4.0. Arylmercuric salts, in which the arom. rings contain more than 1 electron donating group, symmetrize in the absence of an auxiliary ligand at a basic pH. Both processes proceed in water or in mixts. of org. solvents and water. The factors influencing the symmetrization at different pH values are discussed. [on SciFinder(R)]

The mechanism for the symmetrization of arylmercuric salts in the presence of chelating agents includes 3 main steps: (i) dissocn. of the arylmercuric salt; (ii) formation of a reactive complex between the ionized arylmercuric salt and the chelating agent; (iii) an electrophilic substitution at a C-Hg bond via a 2-electron, 3-center bond type transition state. The effect of chelating agents on the reactions of PhHgOAc with piperidine, BuNH2, or CNS- to give Ph2Hg and of m-MeC6H4HgOAc with tetra-Na ethylenediaminetetraacetate to give (m-MeC6H4)2Hg was discussed.

Treatment of 4 compds. of the type Ar(HgX)2 and of poly[4-(acetoxymercurio)styrene] with EDTA tetra-Na salt [64-02-8] and NH3 [7664-41-7] resulted in symmetrization and polymn. of the monomers and crosslinking of the polystyrene [9003-53-6] by Hg [7439-97-6]. E.g., 2,5-bis(chloromercurio)thiophene gave poly(mercurio-2,5-thiophenediyl) [57715-35-2]. [on SciFinder(R)]

A high yield recyclization and pollution free process for the manuf. of diarylmercury compds. is described. The new process enables saving of starting materials and recovery of Hg. [on SciFinder(R)]

Asymmetrical diarylmercury compds., e.g. p-MeOC6H4HgC6H4NMe2-p, were produced together with sym. products via a symmetrization process. The asym. products could not be isolated from the reaction mixt. and their existence was indicated through different analyses (m.p., IR, PMR, mass spectra, elemental analysis and DTA). The asym. products are unstable and disproportionate into two sym. compds. at elevated temps., and in org. solvents even at room temp. [on SciFinder(R)]
