Dibromido(di-2-pyridylamine-κ(2) N,N′)mercury(II)

In the mol­ecule of the title compound, [HgBr(2)(C(10)H(9)N(3))], the Hg(II) atom is four-coordinated in a distorted tetra­hedral configuration by two N atoms from the chelating di-2-pyridylamine ligand and by two Br atoms. In the crystal structure, inter­molecular N—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into centrosymmetric dimers. There are π–π contacts between the pyridine rings [centroid–centroid distances = 3.9662 (5) and 3.9321 (4) Å]. There also exists a C—H⋯π contact between the pyridine CH group and a pyridine ring.
