In this rhenium carbonyl complex of 5-phenyl-3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole, the ReI atom has a distorted octahedral coordination environment. Mutual N—HBr hydrogen bonds arrange the molecules into centrosymmetric dimers. Additional stabilization within the crystal structure is provided by C—HO and C—HBr hydrogen bonds, as well as by slipped π–π stacking interactions.
