The heterobimetallic complexes of formula [(Me(2)phen)(2)M(mu-NCS)Re(NCS)(5)]center dot CH3CN [Me(2)phen = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline and M = Ni (1), Co (2), Fe (3), and Mn (4)] have been prepared, and their crystal structures have been determined by X-ray diffraction on single crystals. Compounds 1-4 crystallize in the monoclinic C2/c space group, and their structure consists of neutral [(Me(2)phen)(2)M(mu-NCS)Re(NCS)(5)] heterodinuclear units with a Re-SCN-M bridge. Each Re(IV) ion in this series is six-coordinated with one sulfur and five nitrogen atoms from six thiocyanate groups building a somewhat distorted octahedral environment, whereas the M(II) metal ions are five-coordinated with four nitrogen atoms from two bidentate Me(2)phen molecules and a nitrogen atom from the bridging thiocyanate describing distorted trigonal bipyramidal surroundings. The values of the Re center dot center dot center dot M separation through the thiocyanate bridge in 1-4 vary in the range 5.903(1)-6.117(3) angstrom. The magnetic properties of 1-4 as well as those of the parent mononuclear Re(IV) compounds (NBu4)(2)[Re(NCS)(6)] (A1) (NBu4+ = tetra-n-butylammonium cation) and [Zn(NO3)(Me(2)phen)(2)](2)[Re(NCS)(5)(SCN)] (A2) were investigated in the temperature range 1.9-300 K. Weak antiferromagnetic interactions between the Re(IV) and M(II) ions across the bridging thiocyanate were found in 1-4 [J = -4.3 (1), -2.4 (2), -1.8 (3), and -1.2 cm(-1) (4), the Hamiltonian being defined as (H) over cap = -J (S) over cap (Re)center dot(S) over cap (M)]. The magnetic behavior of A2 is that of a magnetically diluted Re(IV) complex with a large and positive value of the zero-field splitting for the ground level (D-Re = +37.0 cm(-1)). In the case of A1, although its magnetic behavior is similar to that of A2 in the high-temperature range (D-Re being +19.0 cm(-1)), it exhibits a weak ferromagnetism below 3.0 K with a canting angle of 1.3 degrees.
