The unique dodecanuclear cluster compound Re12CS17 was prepared and studied by X-ray, complex impedance method and density functional theory (DFT). The compound is amorphous, possesses semiconducting properties. Computer simulations showed that the Re and S atoms at the external borders of the neighboring molecules Re12CS17 can form sufficiently strong Re S intermolecular bonds, similar to the Mo S intermolecular bonds of cuboctahedron Mo6S8 molecules in the Chevrel phases.
