catena-Poly[[dibromidomercury(II)]-μ-3-(1-methylpyrrolidin-2-yl)pyridine-κ2N:N′]

In the title polymeric complex, [HgBr2(C10H14N2)]n, each nicotine molecule is bonded to two adjacent Hg atoms, one through the pyrrolidine N atom and the other through the pyridine N atom, forming zigzag chains along [010]. The coordination around mercury is completed by two bromido ligands resulting in a distorted tetrahedral arrangement.
