    2 and ReO − 4, while reaction with acid at high temperature affords Re 2 O 7. In concentrated nitric acid, it yields perrhenic acid. Upon heating to 400 °C under vacuum, it undergoes disproportionation: [2] 3 ReO 3 → Re 2 O 7 + ReO 2. Rhenium trioxide can be chlorinated to give rhenium trioxide chloride: [4] 2 ReO 3 + Cl 2 → 2 ReO 3 Cl
