✦ Synopsis

The title compound, (C~19~H~18~P)~2~[ReCl~6~], has been prepared by a new method and its structure redetermined [Hołynska, Korabik & Lis (2006). Acta Cryst. E62, m3178–m3180]. The previously observed orientational disorder of the [ReCl~6~]^2−^ anion (Re site symmetry \overline{1}) is reinterpreted as being due to a minor cocrystallized Re^V^-containing impurity. Revised magnetic, MS and spectroscopic data are also presented and discussed. The crystal structure involves C—H...Cl hydrogen bonds.
