The new lithium transition-metal sulfides Li{sub 2}M{sub 3}S{sub 4} (M=Pd, Pt) were obtained via multianvil high-pressure/high-temperature syntheses at 8 GPa and 1150 °C starting from a stoichiometric mixture of lithium nitride, sulfur, and palladium or platinum. Single crystal structure analyses indicated the space group P2{sub 1}/c (no. 14) with the following lattice parameters and refinement results: a=492.9(1), b=1005.9(2), c=614.9(2) pm, β=110.9 (1)°, R1=0.0165, wR2=0.0308 (all data) for Li{sub 2}Pd{sub 3}S{sub 4} and a=498.2(1), b=1005.5(2), c=613.0(2) pm, β=110.8(1)°, R1=0.0215, wR2=0.0450 (all data) for Li{sub 2}Pt{sub 3}S{sub 4}. The crystal structures are built up from two distinct Pd/Pt sites, one of which is a special position (0,0,0), two sulfur sites, and one lithium site. The atoms Pd2/Pt2 form isolated square planar PdS{sub 4}/PtS{sub 4} units, whereas the Pd1/Pt1 atoms form pairs of square planar PdS{sub 4}/PtS{sub 4} units, which are connected via a common edge. These two structural motives built up a three-dimensional network structure by linking through common corners. The lithium atoms are positioned inside of the so formed channels. Li{sub 2}M{sub 3}S{sub 4} (M=Pd, Pt) are isostructural to the minerals jaguéite, Cu{sub 2}Pd{sub 3}Se{sub 4} and chrisstanleyite, Ag{sub 2}Pd{sub 3}Se{sub 4}, which are up to now the only representatives of this structure type. Both compounds were studied with respect to their magnetic properties and can be classified as Pauli paramagnetic or diamagnetic. Regarding the possibility of lithium mobility inside the channels, of the structure, solid state {sup 7}Li NMR and high-temperature single crystal investigations revealed localization of the lithium atoms on their crystallographic sites. - Graphical abstract: The ternary lithium transition-metal sulfides Li{sub 2}M{sub 3}S{sub 4} (M=Pd, Pt) were prepared via multianvil high-pressure/high-temperature syntheses. They are built up from square planar PtS{sub 4}/PdS{sub 4} units with lithium located in the channels of the crystal structure. - Highlights: • Li{sub 2}M{sub 3}S{sub 4} (M=Pd, Pt) are the missing sulfide analogue compounds to Cu{sub 2}Pd{sub 3}Se{sub 4} and Ag{sub 2}Pd{sub 3}Se{sub 4}. • The compounds are the first Pd or Pt containing lithium transition-metal sulfides. • Li mobility was investigated via temp. dependent XRD and solid state {sup 7}Li NMR. • Magnetic properties revealed Pauli paramagnetic or diamagnetic contributions.
