The asymmetric unit of the title compound, (C7H10N)2[HgBr4], consists of one cation and one half-anion, bisected by a twofold rotation axis passing through the metal atom. The anion exhibits a distorted tetrahedral arrangement about the HgII atom. In the crystal, the cations and anions are linked by N—HBr hydrogen-bonding interactions along [010]. Cation–cation π–π stacking and BrBr intermolecular interactions are absent.

The title salt, C20H26N3O2+·Cl−, lies across a twofold crystallographic axis with the central N atom of the cation and the chloride anion sitting on this axis, Z′ = 0.5. There is an intramolecular hydrogen bond between the hydroxy H atom and the imino N atom. The chloride anion and the cation are connected into chains along the a axis by an N—HCl hydrogen bond. In the crystal, the chains are linked via C—HCl interactions forming two-dimensional networks lying parallel to (101).
