Heptacarbonyl-1κ(3) C,2κ(4) C-(4-phenyl­pyridine-1κN)di-μ-phenyltellurido-1:2κ(4) Te:Te-dirhenium(I)

In the title complex, [Re(2)(C(6)H(5)Te)(2)(C(11)H(9)N)(CO)(7)], two Re atoms are coordinated in slightly distorted octa­hedral coordination environments and are bridged by two Te atoms, which are coordinated in trigonal-pyramidal environments. The torsion angle for the Te—Re—Te—Re sequence of atoms is 17.06 (3)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π inter­actions. In addition, there are Te⋯Te distances [4.0392 (12) Å] and O⋯O distances [2.902 (19) Å] which are shorter than the sum of the van der Waals radii for these atoms. A short inter­molecular lone pair⋯π distance [C O⋯Cg = 3.31 (2) Å] is also observed.
