18239828 Singh AS, Bharadwaj PK: Binding of HgCl2 by tripodal ligands controlled by AgPF6: receptors for the PF6- anion. Dalton Trans. 2008 Feb 14;(6):738-41. Epub 2007 Nov 27.

Mercuric chloride can readily enter into the biological cycle where it gets converted into other forms of mercury and causes severe neurotoxic, genotoxic and immunotoxic effects; a number of tripodal ligands have been synthesized that selectively bind mercuric chloride and in the presence of AgPF6, mercury can be removed and supramolecular complexes of the PF6- anion are formed.
