Chromium(III) sulfide is the
nonstoichiometric compounds
, with formulas ranging from CrS to Cr0.67S (corresponding to Cr2S3).
Preparation
Chromium(III) sulfide can be prepared through the reaction of a stoichiometric mixture of the elements at 1000 °C[2]
It is a solid that is insoluble in water. According to
nickel arsenide (1:1 stoichiometry) and Cd(OH)2 (1:2 stoichiometry). Some metal-metal bonding is indicated by the short Cr-Cr distance of 2.78 Å.[3]
