Materials Data on Re2N by Materials Project
Re2N is Molybdenite structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of two Re2N sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. Re is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent N atoms. All Re–N bond lengths are 2.18 Å. N is bonded to six equivalent Re atoms to form distorted edge-sharing NRe6 pentagonal pyramids.
