Rhenium dioxide trfluoride is an inorganic compound with the formula ReO₂F₃. A white diamagnetic solid, it one of the few oxyfluorides of rhenium, another being Rhenium trioxide fluoride, ReO₃F. The material is of some academinc interest as a rare example of an dioxide trifluoride.[1] It can be prepared by the reaction of xenon difluoride and rhenium trioxide chloride:

ReO₃Cl + 1.5 XeF₂ → ReO₂F₃ + 0.5 O₂ + 0.5 Cl₂ + 1.5 Xe

According to X-ray crystallography, the compound can exist in four polymorphs. Two polymorphs adopt chain-like structures featuring octahedral Re centers linked by [bridging bridging fluoride]]s. Two other polymorphs adopt cyclic structures (ReO₂F₃)₃ and (ReO₂F₃)₄, again featuring octahedral Re centers and bridging fluorides. Like related oxyfluorides, these coordination oligomers break up in the presence of Lewis bases. Adducts of the formula ReO₂F₃L where L = acetonitrile have been crystallized.[2]
