The material structure described by Yb(NdS2)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic C222_1 space group. Yb(1) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent S(1) and two equivalent S(2) atoms. Nd(1) is bonded to two equivalent S(1) and three equivalent S(2) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing NdS5 square pyramids. There are two inequivalent S sites. In the first S site, S(2) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Yb(1) and three equivalent Nd(1) atoms. In the second S site, S(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Yb(1) and two equivalent Nd(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
