Yb2S3 is Corundum structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Yb3+ is bonded to six equivalent S2- atoms to form a mixture of face, edge, and corner-sharing YbS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 44–62°. There are three shorter (2.79 Å) and three longer (2.80 Å) Yb–S bond lengths. S2- is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent Yb3+ atoms.
