The structure described by Rb2Mn3S4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Ibam space group. Rb(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent S(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Mn sites. In the first Mn site, Mn(1) is bonded to four equivalent S(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing MnS4 tetrahedra. In the second Mn site, Mn(2) is bonded to four equivalent S(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing MnS4 tetrahedra. S(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Rb(1), one Mn(1), and two equivalent Mn(2) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
