Intensely red, moisture-sensitive crystals of [(TiCl2)(1,3-P2S8)](2) were obtained by the reaction of TiCl4 and P4S10 at room temperature. The crystal structure determination revealed molecules formally consisting of two units of the anion [1,3-P2S8](2-) connected with two [TiCl2](2+) cations resulting in the ring-shaped [(TiCl2)(1,3-P2S8)](2). The thiophosphate [1,3-P2S8](2-) forms a six-membered ring and has a rather uncommon constitution among the multitude of anionic phosphorus sulfides and selenides.
