EuPS3 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. Eu(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent S(1), three equivalent S(2), and three equivalent S(3) atoms. P(1) is bonded in a distorted tetrahedral geometry to one P(1), one S(1), one S(2), and one S(3) atom. There are three inequivalent S sites. In the first S site, S(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Eu(1) and one P(1) atom. In the second S site, S(2) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Eu(1) and one P(1) atom. In the third S site, S(3) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Eu(1) and one P(1) atom.
