The molecular structure of bis(trifluoromethyl)mercury has been determined by electron diffraction of gases. The best agreement between experiment and model was obtained for freely rotating CF3 groups and the following geometric parameters (r°α values): C-F = 1.345(3) Å, Hg-C = 2.101(5) Å and <FCF = 106.8°(0.2). The effect of CH3/CF3 substitution on the Hg-C bond length is discussed.
