New metalorgano-chalcogenide compounds based on polymeric frameworks constructed by Se–Hg intermolecular interactions: Preparation, structural characterization, and Raman evaluation

This study investigated the synthesis and structural characterization of two new polymeric frameworks based on metalorgano-chalcogenide materials. X-ray analyses revealed the frameworks of prepared compounds 1 and 2 to be polymeric chains achieved through Se–Hg intermolecular interactions. A detailed Raman evaluation of the compounds was performed, showing their synthetic precursors to constitute a safe and reproducible model for the assignment of the main vibrational modes of the molecules investigated. Complete characterization of 1 and 2 also included elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, UV–Vis absorption data, and EDX analysis.
