Abstract A new bis-cyclic crown ether containing a biphenyl unit in its structure has been prepared. This compound shows unexpected behaviour in complexing Hg(CN)2. The new ligand transports this mercury salt across liquid membranes with great efficiency. Clear differences have been observed in the complexation of Hg(CN)2 and Hg(SCN)2. The X-ray structure of a 1:2 mercury complex with Hg(SCN)2 is also reported.
