TLDR
In this paper, the van der Waals radius of mercury compounds has been shown to be in the range 1.7-2.0 A. A general value for the radius should lie at the conservative end of the range, which corresponds to Grdenic's largely neglected upper limit for any form of bonding, is proposed.About:

Intramolecular d10–d10 interactions in heterometallic clusters of the transition metals
TL;DR: A critical review of the synthesis and structures of heterometallic clusters of the transition metals in which intra- rather than intermolecular d(10)-d(10) interactions are at work, in order to limit the role of packing effects.

Structures and properties of mercury(II) coordination polymers
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an overview of all the reported coordination polymers of mercury(II) after 1990 and a summary of their properties, showing that one-dimensional polymers constituted the majority of the most frequent coordination number for the metal.

Multidentate carborane-containing Lewis acids and their chemistry: mercuracarborands
TL;DR: Macrocyclic Lewis acidic hosts with structures incorporating electron-withdrawing icosahedral carboranes and electrophilic mercury centers bind a variety of electron-rich guests as mentioned in this paper.

π-Complexation of Biphenyl, Naphthalene, and Triphenylene to Trimeric Perfluoro-ortho-phenylene Mercury. Formation of Extended Binary Stacks with Unusual Luminescent Properties
TL;DR: Trimeric perfluoro-ortho-phenylene mercury crystallizes from CS(2) as a pure compound and reveals the existence of stacks in which molecules of 1 and molecules of arenes alternate, resulting in relatively short intermolecular mercury-mercury distances.

Intramolecular non-bonded atomic radii: application to the heavier p elements
TL;DR: In this article, non-bonded atomic radii for the 4p, 5p and 6p series of elements were derived and applied to the stereochemistries of their compounds with carbon, nitrogen and oxygen.

Intramolecular non-bonded atomic radii: New data and revised radii for heavy p elements
TL;DR: In this paper, structural data were employed to confirm the values of intramolecular non-bonded atomic radii previously derived for certain p elements and to revise earlier values for elements in the 5 p series.

Structural studies in the phenylmercury/oxinate system
TL;DR: The crystal structures of PhHgL have been determined at 295 K and refined by least squares to residuals of 0.068 (2148 'observed' reflections) for as mentioned in this paper.
