description: U2S3 crystallizes in the monoclinic Pm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are eight inequivalent U3+ sites. In the first U3+ site, U3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing US6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 7–71°. There are a spread of U–S bond distances ranging from 2.67–2.77 Å. In the second U3+ site, U3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing US6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 7–71°. There are a spread of U–S bond distances ranging from 2.71–2.79 Å. In the third U3+ site, U3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing US6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 6–70°. There are a spread of U–S bond distances ranging from 2.71–2.79 Å. In the fourth U3+ site, U3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing US6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 6–70°. There are a spread of U–S bond distances ranging from 2.72–2.79 Å. In the fifth U3+ site, U3+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing US6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 6–70°.
