Mercury(II) acetate is the chemical compound with the formula Hg(O2CCH3)2. Commonly abbreviated Hg(OAc)2, this compound is employed as a reagent to generate organomercury compounds from unsaturated organic precursors.
Mercuric acetate is used chiefly for mercuration of organic compounds; for the absorption ofethylene; as a chemical intermediate for phenylmercuric acetate; a mildewcide; and other organomercury compounds. It is used as a catalyst in organic synthesis; and in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals.
The process begins when mercuric acetate, Hg(OAc)2, dissociates to form a mercuric cation: ... When a π bond attacks mercuric cation electrons interact with the nearby positive charge to form a bridge. This intermediate is called mercurinium ion.
