The compound described by YbS2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. Yb(1) is bonded to eight equivalent S(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing YbS8 hexagonal bipyramids. S(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Yb(1) and one S(1) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
