Sn3S is alpha bismuth trifluoride structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. There are two inequivalent Sn sites. In the first Sn site, Sn(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Sn(2) and four equivalent S(1) atoms. In the second Sn site, Sn(2) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Sn(1) atoms. S(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Sn(1) atoms.
