Abstract: The title compound, (Et₄N)₂[MoS₄(CuCl)₂], consists of tetraethylammonium cations of expected geometry, and trinuclear anions in which two opposite edges of an MoS₄^2- tetrahedron are bridged by CuCl units. The bridging of Mo and Cu centres by all four S atoms hardly affects the tetrahedral coordination of Mo and leads to a distorted trigonal planar coordination geometry for Cu, with both chloro ligands terminal.
