The compound described by ReN2 crystallizes in the monoclinic Pc space group. Re(1) is bonded to three equivalent N(1) and three equivalent N(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing ReN6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 31-57°. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Re(1) atoms. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Re(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
