Materials Data on K2PtS2 by Materials Project
K2PtS2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent S2- atoms. There are two shorter (3.30 Å) and four longer (3.31 Å) K–S bond lengths. Pt2+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent S2- atoms. All Pt–S bond lengths are 2.39 Å. S2- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six equivalent K1+ and two equivalent Pt2+ atoms.
