•Neutral rhenium(I)-based mixed-ligands tetranuclear complex.•Four mononuclear complex units are arranged spatially in a molecule.•Mononuclear complex contains Re(CO)3, pyridinyl and 2-(benzoxazol-2-yl)phenolate.
The reaction of Re2(CO)10 with 2-(benzoxazol-2-yl)phenol (HL) and 1,2,4,5-tetrakis(4-pyridylvinyl)benzene (L2) gives a heteroleptic tetranuclear complex, [((fac-Re(CO)3)L)4(L2)] 1. The corner of 1 comprises four spatially arranged mononuclear units.
