MoReC2 is Caswellsilverite structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. Mo(1) is bonded to six equivalent C(1) atoms to form MoC6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Re(1)C6 octahedra, edges with six equivalent Mo(1)C6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent Re(1)C6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 1°. Re(1) is bonded to six equivalent C(1) atoms to form ReC6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Mo(1)C6 octahedra, edges with six equivalent Mo(1)C6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent Re(1)C6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 1°. C(1) is bonded to three equivalent Mo(1) and three equivalent Re(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing CRe3Mo3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted.
