The crystal structure described by ReN2 is Hausmannite-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/m space group. Re(1) is bonded to three equivalent N(1) and three equivalent N(2) atoms to form ReN6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent N(2)Re3N tetrahedra and edges with six equivalent Re(1)N6 octahedra. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to three equivalent Re(1) and one N(2) atom. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded to three equivalent Re(1) and one N(1) atom to form distorted NRe3N tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent Re(1)N6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent N(2)Re3N tetrahedra, and edges with two equivalent N(2)Re3N tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 47-50°. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
