Six new compounds in the A{sub 2}LiMS{sub 4} (A=K, Rb, Cs; M=V, Nb, Ta) family, namely K{sub 2}LiVS{sub 4}, Rb{sub 2}LiVS{sub 4}, Cs{sub 2}LiVS{sub 4}, Rb{sub 2}LiNbS{sub 4}, Cs{sub 2}LiNbS{sub 4}, and Rb{sub 2}LiTaS{sub 4}, have been synthesized by the reactions of the elements in Li{sub 2}S/S/A{sub 2}S{sub 3} (A=K, Rb, Cs) fluxes at 773K. The A and M atoms play a role in the coordination environment of the Li atoms, leading to different crystal structures. Coordination numbers of Li atoms are five in K{sub 2}LiVS{sub 4}, four in A{sub 2}LiVS{sub 4} (A=Rb, Cs) and Cs{sub 2}LiNbS{sub 4}, and both four and five in Rb{sub 2}LiMS{sub 4} (M=Nb, Ta). The A{sub 2}LiVS{sub 4} (A=Rb, Cs) structure comprises one-dimensional chains of {sub {infinity}}{sup 1}[LiVS{sub 4}] tetrahedra. The Rb{sub 2}LiMS{sub 4} (M=Nb, Ta) structure is composed of two-dimensional {sub {infinity}}{sup 2}[LiMS{sub 4}] layers. The Cs{sub 2}LiNbS{sub 4} structure contains one-dimensional {sub {infinity}}{sup 1}[LiNbS{sub 4}] chains that are related to the Rb{sub 2}LiMS{sub 4} layers. The K{sub 2}LiVS{sub 4} structure contains a different kind of {sub {infinity}}{sup 1}[LiVS{sub 4}] layer.
