The compound described by WRe2 is Hexagonal Laves structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. W(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent W(1), three equivalent Re(1), and nine equivalent Re(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Re sites. In the first Re site, Re(1) is bonded to six equivalent W(1) and six equivalent Re(2) atoms to form a mixture of edge, corner, and face-sharing ReRe6W6 cuboctahedra. In the second Re site, Re(2) is bonded to six equivalent W(1), two equivalent Re(1), and four equivalent Re(2) atoms to form a mixture of edge, corner, and face-sharing ReRe6W6 cuboctahedra. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
