LiCuS crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmn2_1 space group. Li(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Cu(1) and four equivalent S(1) atoms. Cu(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Li(1) and three equivalent S(1) atoms. S(1) is bonded to four equivalent Li(1) and three equivalent Cu(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing SLi4Cu3 hexagonal pyramids.
LiCuS crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmn2_1 space group. Li(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Cu(1) and four equivalent S(1) atoms. There are a spread of Li(1)-Cu(1) bond distances ranging from 2.71-3.13 Å. There is one shorter (2.43 Å) and three longer (2.54 Å) Li(1)-S(1) bond lengths. Cu(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Li(1) and three equivalent S(1) atoms. There are two shorter (2.28 Å) and one longer (2.29 Å) Cu(1)-S(1) bond length. S(1) is bonded to four equivalent Li(1) and three equivalent Cu(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing SLi4Cu3 hexagonal pyramids.
