MnS2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. Mn(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent S(2) and three equivalent S(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent S sites. In the first S site, S(2) is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two equivalent Mn(1) atoms. In the second S site, S(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Mn(1) atoms.
MnS2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. Mn(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent S(2) and three equivalent S(1) atoms. There is one shorter (2.20 Å) and one longer (2.25 Å) Mn(1)-S(2) bond length. There are a spread of Mn(1)-S(1) bond distances ranging from 2.16-2.43 Å. There are two inequivalent S sites. In the first S site, S(2) is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two equivalent Mn(1) atoms. In the second S site, S(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Mn(1) atoms.
