Abstract: In the title complex, {[HgI₂(C₁₇H₁₃N₅O₂)]·C₃H₇NO}_n, the Hg atom is coordinated by two I atoms and two N atoms from two different ligands in a distorted tetrahedral environment. Hg atoms are bridged by N,N'-di-3-pyridylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide ligands, forming a helical chain running along the a axis.
