Abstract: In the title compound, [Hg(C₂H₆O₂PS₂)₂]_n, the Hg atom is coordinated by four S atoms in a distorted tetrahedral arrangement. The Hg-S bond distances are in the range 2.508 (2)-2.662 (2) Å, and the six S-Hg-S angles are in the range 99.14 (7)-118.77 (8)°. In the crystal structure, a two-dimensional network of 16-membered rings of [-Hg-S-P-S-]₄ is formed parallel to the (100) plane.
