Prepared via reaction of He 2 O 7 with ReCl 5 .
Rhenium metal is chlorinated at 500°C in a stream of Cl 2 in
the apparatus described for the preparation of ReO 3 Cl. Following
cooling, the Cl 3 is displaced with O 2 and the sections of the tube
in which brown-black crystals of R e d s have appeared are heated
with a small flame to50-70°C. TheReCls melts (often with appear-
ance of a flame) and the crystals turn into a brown liquid, which is
then distilled in a stream of N 3 into a well-cooled U tube receiver.
The excess C l a is evaporated, the apparatus filled with O s , and the
liquid brought to a gentle boil. Heating at 200°C in an N 3 stream
is continued for an hour in order to completely remove all traces
of ReO 3 Cl. Then about one third of the remaining liquid is dis-
tilled off. The receiver is now replaced by a fresh one and, except
for a small residue, the remaining liquid is distilled over.
Alternate method: From ReCl 3 and dry O a at 110 to 130°C
