Abstract

A rhenium cluster complex (2,2'-bipyH2)2[Re4Se4(CN)12]×(2,2'-bipy)×7H2O (1) is obtained and characterized. The compound crystallizes in a monoclinic space group C2/c with the unit cell parameters: a = 16.9191(6) Å, b = 18.7458(6) Å, c = 19.0139(5) Å, β = 108.568(1)°, V = 5716.6(3) Å3, Z = 4, dx = 2.291 g/cm3. The crystal structure is a packing of bipyridylium cations (2,2'-bipyH2)2+, cluster anions [Re4Se4(CN)12]4–, bipyridyl molecules, and crystal water molecules, which are linked together by a system of hydrogen bonds.
