The reaction of organomercury(II) halogenides ( R HgHal, Hal = Cl, I) with silver azide furnished the corresponding covalent organomercury(II) azides R HgN 3 ( R = Me ( 1 ), t Bu ( 2 ), Ph ( 3 )). In addition to the characterization by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, IR and Raman spectroscopy as well as mass spectrometry, the mercury content was determined. A dependance on the solventpolarity for the 14 N NMR resonances was observed. Furthermore, X‐ray diffraction studies were performed and the crystal structures for mercury(II) azides 1 – 3 are reported. A comparison of the bond lengths and angles with data from theoretical calculations is given.
