The red form of [Re(phen)(CO)3(H2O)]-CF3SO3.H2O.
The coordination geometry of the cations in the red form of aquatricarbonyl(1,10-phenanthroline-N,N')rhenium(I) trifluoromethanesulfonate hydrate, [Re(C12H8N2)(CO)3-(H2O)]CF3SO3.H2O, is approximately octahedral, with a facial arrangement of the linearly coordinated carbonyl ligands. The phenanthroline (phen) ligands interleave to form a columnar pi-stacked structure.
