Through systematic experiments, two novel mercury iodate sulfates, namely, Hg-2(IO3)(2)(SO4)(H2O) and Hg-2(IO3)(2)(SO4) were obtained. They crystallize in monoclinic space group C2 and C2/c, respectively. Hg-2(IO3)(2)(SO4)(H2O) exhibits the [Hg(IO3)](+) polar cationic layer inherited from Hg(IO3)(2) and the three-dimensional (3D) framework inherited from HgSO4. This enables Hg-2(IO3)(2)(SO4)(H2O) to generate a strong second harmonic generation (SHG) response of 6 times that of KH2PO4 (KDP). The structure of Hg-2(IO3)(2)(SO4) is very similar to that of Hg-2(IO3)(2)(SO4)(H2O), and they can be transformed into each other. Hg-2(IO3)(2)(SO4)(H2O) shows a large optical band gap of 3.98 eV and a high dehydration temperature of 250 degrees C. This study indicates that by reasonable design, the introduction of multiple functional groups into a compound may combine their advantages to achieve good overall optical performance.
