Chemical compound

Rhenium(IV) oxide or rhenium dioxide is the inorganic compound with the formula ReO2. This gray to black crystalline solid is a laboratory reagent that can be used as a catalyst. It adopts the rutile structure.

## Synthesis and reactions

[edit]

It forms via comproportionation:[3]

2 Re2O7 \+ 3 Re → 7 ReO2

Single crystals are obtained by chemical transport, using iodine as the transporting agent.:[4]

ReO2 \+ I2 ⇌ ReO2I2

At high temperatures it undergoes disproportionation:

7 ReO2 → 2 Re2O7 \+ 3 Re

It forms rhenates with alkaline hydrogen peroxide and oxidizing acids.[5] In molten sodium hydroxide it forms sodium rhenate:[6]

2 NaOH + ReO2 → Na2ReO3 \+ H2O
