MgYb2S4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I-42d space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent S2- atoms. All Mg–S bond lengths are 2.53 Å. Yb3+ is bonded to eight equivalent S2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing YbS8 hexagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Yb–S bond distances ranging from 2.85–2.93 Å. S2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Mg2+ and four equivalent Yb3+ atoms.
