Abstract
MgYb2S4 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Mg2+ sites. In the first Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to five S2- atoms to form MgS5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with four YbS5 trigonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent YbS8 hexagonal bipyramids, and edges with two YbS5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Mg–S bond distances ranging from 2.43–2.74 Å. In the second Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five S2- atoms. There are a spread of Mg–S bond distances ranging from 2.46–2.54 Å. There are four inequivalent Yb3+ sites. In the first Yb3+ site, Yb3+ is bonded in a distorted hexagonal planar geometry to six S2- atoms. There are a spread of Yb–S bond distances ranging from 2.75–3.06 Å. In the second Yb3+ site, Yb3+ is bonded to eight S2- atoms to form distorted YbS8 hexagonal bipyramids that share a cornercorner with one YbS5 trigonal bipyramid, edges with two equivalent YbS8 hexagonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent MgS5 trigonal bipyramids, and edges with three YbS5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Yb–S bond distances ranging from 2.74–3.12 Å. In the third Yb3+ site, Yb3+ ismore »
