Synthesis and characterization of microstructured crystalline complexes of [HgI2(C14H12N2)] and [HgBr2(C14H12N2)] were carried out from the reaction between 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, mercury acetate, KI, and KBr, respectively, in methanol by sonochemical method. The reaction conditions were optimized under ultrasonic irradiations and without it. Characterization of the complexes was performed by elemental analysis, XRD, SEM, FTIR, and thermal analysis (TG/DTA). The results showed that sonochemical method caused significant reduction of the reaction time. Then the products were put under supercritical condition in a Teflon-lined, stainless-steel Parr bomb container and heated at 150°C for 48 h. The results showed that the chemical formulas of the complexes were not changed; however, the particle sizes were reduced and porosity increased
