Rb(CoS)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. Rb(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent S(1) atoms. Co(1) is bonded to four equivalent S(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing CoS4 tetrahedra. S(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Rb(1) and four equivalent Co(1) atoms.
