Dirubidium tetrathiotungstate, Rb₂[WS₄]

J. Yao and J. A. Ibers

Abstract: Rb₂[WS₄] crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma and is isostructural with Cs₂[MoS₄], Rb₂[MoS₄], K₂[MoS₄] and (NH₄)₂[WS₄]. The structure contains discrete tetrahedral [WS₄]^2- anions of symmetry m, separated by Rb⁺ cations. One of the two unique Rb⁺ cations is surrounded by nine S atoms and the other by ten S atoms.
