Abstract
The ternary sulphide Cs6Re6S12 was prepared by combination of caesium carbonate with rhenium in a sulphur-charged argon stream at 800 degree s C. X-Ray investigations of single crystals revealed a two-dimensiona l layered structure which is novel in the field of ternary rhenium cha lcogenides. The compound contains [Re6S8] units linked by monosulphide bridges in accordance with the formula {[Re6S8]S2S4/2}(6-). An analog ous linkage of [M(6)X(8)]-type units is known in MoCl2.
