(MoS)4Ge(Ga)S4 is Cuprite-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure consists of four MoS clusters inside a Ge(Ga)S4 framework. In each MoS cluster, Mo(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent S(2) atoms. S(2) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Mo(1) atoms. In the Ge(Ga)S4 framework, Ga(1) is bonded to four equivalent S(1) atoms to form GaS4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent Ge(1)S4 tetrahedra. Ge(1) is bonded to four equivalent S(1) atoms to form GeS4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent Ga(1)S4 tetrahedra. S(1) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Ga(1) and one Ge(1) atom.
