Dicerium trisulfide, with the CAS number 12014-93-6, is an inorganic compound composed of two cerium (Ce) atoms and three sulfur (S) atoms. It typically appears as a solid with a crystalline structure, exhibiting a dark color, often black or dark brown. This compound is notable for its semiconductor properties and is of interest in various applications, including materials science and catalysis. Dicerium trisulfide is relatively stable under ambient conditions but may react with strong acids or bases. Its synthesis often involves high-temperature reactions between cerium oxides and sulfur. The compound's properties, such as electrical conductivity and thermal stability, make it a subject of research in the fields of solid-state chemistry and condensed matter physics. Additionally, due to the presence of cerium, it may exhibit interesting magnetic properties, which can be explored for potential applications in magnetic materials. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as with many inorganic sulfides, due to potential toxicity and reactivity.
