Materials Data on P4S3 by Materials Project
P4S3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four tetraphosphorus trisulfide molecules. there are three inequivalent P+1.50+ sites. In the first P+1.50+ site, P+1.50+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S2- atom. The P–S bond length is 2.10 Å. In the second P+1.50+ site, P+1.50+ is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three S2- atoms. All P–S bond lengths are 2.12 Å. In the third P+1.50+ site, P+1.50+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S2- atom. The P–S bond length is 2.10 Å. There are two inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded in a water-like geometry to two P+1.50+ atoms. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded in a water-like geometry to two P+1.50+ atoms.
