Cs(SbS2)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. Cs(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to one S(4), two equivalent S(1), three equivalent S(2), and four equivalent S(3) atoms. There are two inequivalent Sb sites. In the first Sb site, Sb(1) is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to one S(1), one S(2), one S(3), and one S(4) atom. In the second Sb site, Sb(2) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one S(1), one S(2), and two equivalent S(4) atoms. There are four inequivalent S sites. In the first S site, S(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Cs(1), one Sb(1), and one Sb(2) atom. In the second S site, S(2) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Cs(1), one Sb(1), and one Sb(2) atom. In the third S site, S(3) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Cs(1), one Sb(1), and one S(3) atom. In the fourth S site, S(4) is bonded to one Cs(1), one Sb(1), and two equivalent Sb(2) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing SCsSb3 trigonal pyramids.
