Complexation of a preformed complex [Hg(Tab)](PF) (1) with nicotinic acid in the presence of EtN afforded a mononuclear complex [Hg(Tab)(nico)](PF) (2) (nico = nicotinate, Tab = 4-(trimethylammonio)benzenethiolate) which, upon subsequent treatment with one or three equiv. of CdCl·2.5HO, gave rise to an unprecedented heterometallic cage complex [Cd(HO)]@{CdCl(nico)[Hg(Tab)(μ-Cl)]} (3) or a simple salt of [Hg(Tab)][CdCl] (4).
