Iridium(III) sulfide is theinorganic compound with the formula Ir2S3. It is an insoluble black solid, prepared by heating a mixture of elemental iridium and sulfur[citation needed]. Crystals can be grown bychemical vapor transport usingbromine as the transporting agent. The structure consists ofoctahedral and tetrahedral Ir and S centers, respectively. No close Ir-Ir contacts are observed.[1]Rh2S3 and Rh2Se3 adopt the same structure.
