The structure described by Re is alpha Samarium structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. There are four inequivalent Re sites. In the first Re site, Re(1) is bonded to six equivalent Re(1) and six Re(2,2) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing ReRe12 cuboctahedra. In the second Re site, Re(2) is bonded to three equivalent Re(1) and nine Re(2,2) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing ReRe12 cuboctahedra. In the third Re site, Re(2) is bonded to three equivalent Re(1) and nine Re(2,2) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing ReRe12 cuboctahedra. In the fourth Re site, Re(2) is bonded to three equivalent Re(1) and nine Re(2,2) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing ReRe12 cuboctahedra. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
