4.4. Bis-[N-(2-amino-jN-phenyl)-D-glycero-D-gulo-
heptonamide] mercury(II) dinitrate [Hg(adgha)2](NO3)2
To a solution of adgha (0.060 g, 0.189 mmol) in DMSO-d6
(0.5 mL) was added Hg(NO3)2ꢁH2O (0.032 g, 0.094 mmol). The reac-
tion mixture was stirred for 5 min at 20 °C. The homogeneous solu-
tion was transferred to 5 mm NMR tube. dC (200 MHz; DMSO-d6;

-glycero-D-gulo-Heptono-1,4-lactone (0.5 g, 2.4 mmol) and
o-phenylenediamine (0.259 g, 2.4 mmol) were suspended in etha-
nol (10 mL) in a 20 mL reactor. The reactor was closed and heated
in an oil bath with a magnetic stirrer at 100 °C for 24 h. Upon cool-
ing of the mixture to room temperature, an amorphous precipitate
was formed, which was collected by filtration, washed with etha-
nol, and air-dried. Yield: 0.140 g, (20%); IR (KBr):

All quantum chemical calculations of this system were done
using the GAUSSIAN98 suite of programs.20 The study was done using
DFT methods, which compared to standard ab initio theories
require less computational time and storage memory. The B3LYP
hybrid functional was chosen because it has been found to conduce
to results in fine agreement to those coming from high-level ab
initio methods,21–24 and particularly has proven to have the best
performance for bond lengths in coordination compounds of other
group 12 cations.25 All calculations were done using a 6-31G(d,p)
basis set for carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen atoms and
for mercury an effective core potential function (ECP) was used.
We selected the Stuttgart/Dresden ECP26 since they contain spin–
orbit coupling effects that are non-negligible for second and third
row transition metals. The topological analysis of the electronic
