ReN2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. Re(1) is bonded to six equivalent N(1) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing ReN6 pentagonal pyramids. N(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to three equivalent Re(1) and one N(1) atom.
ReN2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. Re(1) is bonded to six equivalent N(1) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing ReN6 pentagonal pyramids. All Re(1)-N(1) bond lengths are 2.12 Å. N(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to three equivalent Re(1) and one N(1) atom. The N(1)-N(1) bond length is 1.35 Å.
