The first coordination compound of the ReS 4 ⊖ion, the title compound 1 , has a most unusual structure: It is made up of two facesharing (distorted) cubes–a double cubane–a type of structure that was hitherto unknown. 1 is formed as the [PPh 4 ] 2 [NEt 4 ] salt. In the structure depicted on the right, four Cl ligands are represented by lines only.
