A new mixed-cluster molybdenum sulfide Cs4[Mo3S(S2)6][Mo3S(S2)5(S4)]-0
.5H2O was synthesized by the hydrothermal method and characterized by
single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound consists of distinct la
yers of two types of molybdenum sulfide clusters: type A, [Mo3(mu3-S)(
S2)6]2-; type B, [Mo3(mu3-S)(S2)5(S4)]2-. The type B clusters are link
ed in one-dimensional chains through weak S-S intercluster interaction
