RhS2 is Pyrite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pa-3 space group. Rh(1) is bonded to six equivalent S(1) atoms to form RhS6 octahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Rh(1)S6 octahedra and corners with six equivalent S(1)Rh3S tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 66°. S(1) is bonded to three equivalent Rh(1) and one S(1) atom to form SRh3S tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent Rh(1)S6 octahedra and corners with fifteen equivalent S(1)Rh3S tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 76°.
