%X Crystals of methyl[tetrakis(pyrazol-l-yl)borato-N,N']mercury(II) [MeHg(B(pz)4}] are triclinic, Pi, a 12.73(2), b 8.88(1), c 8.10(1) Å, &#945; 109.80(8), &#946; 99.16(9), &#947; 103.05(10)º, Z 2. The structure, determined by single-crystal X-ray methods (R 0.12 for 1598 'observed' reflections), has molecules of MeHg(B(pz)4} with two pz groups coordinated to mercury, giving planar but irregular coordination. The more strongly bound group has Hg-N 2.07(4) A with C-Hg-N 169(2)º, and the other group has Hg-N 2.65(4)º with C-Hg-N 112(1)º.
