Two novel two‐dimensional (2D) coordination polymers of stoichiometry [{PhS(CH 2 ) 4 SPh}Hg 2 X 4 ] n (X = Cl, 2a ; X = Br, 2b ) have been prepared by treatment of HgX 2 with PhS(CH 2 ) 4 SPh 1 , acting as bridging dithioether ligand. The extended 2D structures result from bridging coordination of 1 between two mercury atoms and intermolecular Hg–X interactions, thus linking the HgX 2 units in two dimensions. As established for 2a,b by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, the coordination around the Hg centers in both isomorphous compounds (monoclinic, space group P 2 1 /c) is distorted tetrahedral, with quite short Hg‐thioether bonds of 2.4780(19) ( 2a ) and 2.499(3) Å ( 2b ), respectively.
