The compound described by Mg2MoMn3S8 is Spinel-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. Mg(1) is bonded to one S(1), one S(2), and two equivalent S(3) atoms to form MgS4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent Mo(1)S6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent Mn(1)S6 octahedra, and corners with six equivalent Mn(2)S6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 58-59°. Mo(1) is bonded to two equivalent S(2) and four equivalent S(3) atoms to form MoS6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Mg(1)S4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent Mn(1)S6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent Mn(2)S6 octahedra. There are two inequivalent Mn sites. In the first Mn site, Mn(1) is bonded to two equivalent S(1) and four equivalent S(3) atoms to form MnS6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Mg(1)S4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent Mo(1)S6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent Mn(2)S6 octahedra.
