The structure described by Yb2S3 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. Yb(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one S(2) and five equivalent S(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent S sites. In the first S site, S(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Yb(1) and one S(2) atom. In the second S site, S(2) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two equivalent Yb(1) and two equivalent S(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
