The material structure described by RhCo2S4 is Spinel-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imma space group. Rh(1) is bonded to two equivalent S(2) and four equivalent S(1) atoms to form RhS6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Co(1)S4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent Rh(1)S6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent Co(2)S6 octahedra. There are two inequivalent Co sites. In the first Co site, Co(1) is bonded to two equivalent S(1) and two equivalent S(2) atoms to form CoS4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent Rh(1)S6 octahedra and corners with six equivalent Co(2)S6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 53-60°. In the second Co site, Co(2) is bonded to two equivalent S(1) and four equivalent S(2) atoms to form CoS6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Co(1)S4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent Co(2)S6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent Rh(1)S6 octahedra. There are two inequivalent S sites. In the first S site, S(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Rh(1), one Co(1), and one Co(2) atom. In the second S site, S(2) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Rh(1), one Co(1), and two equivalent Co(2) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
