Materials Data on K2Pd3S4 by Materials Project
K2Pd3S4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Fddd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent S2- atoms. There are a spread of K–S bond distances ranging from 3.46–3.67 Å. There are two inequivalent Pd2+ sites. In the first Pd2+ site, Pd2+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent S2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.36 Å) and two longer (2.38 Å) Pd–S bond lengths. In the second Pd2+ site, Pd2+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent S2- atoms. All Pd–S bond lengths are 2.37 Å. S2- is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to four equivalent K1+ and three Pd2+ atoms.
