Materials Data on OsS2 by Materials Project
SSOs is Pyrite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pa-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Os4+ is bonded to six equivalent S2- atoms to form OsS6 octahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent OsS6 octahedra and corners with six equivalent SOs3S tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 64°. All Os–S bond lengths are 2.37 Å. S2- is bonded to three equivalent Os4+ and one S2- atom to form distorted SOs3S tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent OsS6 octahedra and corners with fifteen equivalent SOs3S tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 78°. The S–S bond length is 2.28 Å.
