In the title complex, [HgI2(C21H19N5)2], the HgII ion is located on a twofold rotation axis and is coordinated by two I atoms and two N atoms from two (E)-2-{5,5-dimethyl-3-[4-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)styryl]cyclohex-2-enylidene}malononitrile ligands in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by intermolecular π–π interactions between the triazole and benzene rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.794 (3) Å] into a band extending in [010]. These bands are further connected by C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds into a two-dimensional network parallel to (100).

For the preparation of the title complex, (E)-2-(3-(4-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)styryl)- 5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-enylidene)malononitrile (0.341 g, 1 mmol) in 25 ml of dichloromethane was added into a 50 ml
tube, carefully layered with a clear acetonitrile and benzene solution (25 ml) of HgI2 (0.227 g, 0.5 mmol). Crystals were obtained by slow interlayer diffusion (yield: 0.427 g, 75.1%).All H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.93 (CH), 0.97 (CH2) and 0.96 (CH3) Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2(1.5 for methyl)Ueq(C).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |

The design and synthesis of metal-organic hybrid complexes based on strong coordinate bonds and multiple weak non-covalent forces have become one of the most active fields in coordination chemistry and crystal engineering not only for their fascinating structural features but also for their interesting properties as new functional materials with tremendous potential applications in the areas of luminescence, catalysis, separation, adsorption, biological chemistry (Haneda et al., 2007; Li et al., 2006; Liu et al., 2010, 2011; Satapathy et al., 2012; Sun et al., 2012). The organic ligand of the title compound had been investigated for its optical properties (Zheng et al., 2013). A variety of mercury(II) complexes have been reported (Jin, Wang et al., 2013). Besides, triazole and isophorone-malononitrile complexes have been reported (Jin, Zhang et al., 2013; Zhou et al., 2009). In this paper, we report the synthesis and crystal structure of the title complex (Fig. 1). In the crystal, intermolecular π–π interactions between the triazole and benzene rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.794 (3) Å] link the molecules into a band extending in [010] (Fig. 2). The neighboring bands are further linked into a two-dimensional network parallel to (100) through C—H···N hydrogen bonds (Fig.3).
