Re(OCl2)2 is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pna2_1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four Re(OCl2)2 clusters. Re(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one O(1), one O(2), one Cl(1), one Cl(2), one Cl(3), and one Cl(4) atom. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Re(1) and one Cl(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Re(1) atom. There are four inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Re(1) and one O(1) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Re(1) atom. In the third Cl site, Cl(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Re(1) atom. In the fourth Cl site, Cl(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Re(1) atom.
