Description

Lanthanum oxide sulfide La2O2S2, Mr=373.947, orthorhombic, Cmca, a=13.215 (2), b=5.943 (1), c=5.938 (1) A, V=466.3 (2) A3, Z=4, Dx=5.32 Mg m-3, Mo Kα, λ=0.71069 A, μ=18.87 mm-1, F(000)=648, R=0.017, 582 unique observed reflections, flux growth, data corrected for twinning of the crystal. The structure is built from infinitive layers of LaO4S4 square antiprisms connected by edges; these layers share either oxygen or disulfide common planes. Short S-S distances [d=2.103 (2) A] correspond to S22- entities. (orig.)
