PuRe2 is Hexagonal Laves structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. Pu(1) is bonded in a 13-coordinate geometry to one Pu(1), three equivalent Re(1), three equivalent Re(3), and six equivalent Re(2) atoms. There are three inequivalent Re sites. In the first Re site, Re(1) is bonded to six equivalent Pu(1), two equivalent Re(3), and four equivalent Re(2) atoms to form a mixture of edge, corner, and face-sharing RePu6Re6 cuboctahedra. In the second Re site, Re(2) is bonded to six equivalent Pu(1), two equivalent Re(1), two equivalent Re(2), and two equivalent Re(3) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, corner, and face-sharing RePu6Re6 cuboctahedra. In the third Re site, Re(3) is bonded to six equivalent Pu(1), two equivalent Re(1), and four equivalent Re(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, corner, and face-sharing RePu6Re6 cuboctahedra.
PuRe2 is Hexagonal Laves structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. Pu(1) is bonded in a 13-coordinate geometry to one Pu(1), three equivalent Re(1), three equivalent Re(3), and six equivalent Re(2) atoms. The Pu(1)-Pu(1) bond length is 2.33 Å. There are two shorter (3.32 Å) and one longer (3.35 Å) Pu(1)-Re(1) bond length. There are two shorter (3.02 Å) and one longer (3.22 Å) Pu(1)-Re(3) bond length. There are four shorter (3.04 Å) and two longer (3.21 Å) Pu(1)-Re(2) bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Re sites. In the first Re site, Re(1) is bonded to six equivalent Pu(1), two equivalent Re(3), and four equivalent Re(2) atoms to form a mixture of edge, corner, and face-sharing RePu6Re6 cuboctahedra. Both Re(1)-Re(3) bond lengths are 2.60 Å. All Re(1)-Re(2) bond lengths are 2.60 Å. In the second Re site, Re(2) is bonded to six equivalent Pu(1), two equivalent Re(1), two equivalent Re(2), and two equivalent Re(3) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, corner, and face-sharing RePu6Re6 cuboctahedra. There is one shorter (2.67 Å) and one longer (2.89 Å) Re(2)-Re(2) bond length. There is one shorter (2.70 Å) and one longer (2.91 Å) Re(2)-Re(3) bond length. In the third Re site, Re(3) is bonded to six equivalent Pu(1), two equivalent Re(1), and four equivalent Re(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, corner, and face-sharing RePu6Re6 cuboctahedra.
