The superstructure of titanium sesquisulfide, TiS1.46, is derived on the basis of 1 MV and 100 kV high-resolution electron microscope images. The crystal has monoclinic symmetry (pseudo-hexagonal) with lattice parameters a = 5-92, b = 10.3, c = 22.8 Å and β = 90°. The space group is Cc. The metal vacancies are confined to every second metal layer and ordered within the layer. They are arranged in a stacking sequence of the 4C-type along the c axis. The sulfur atoms are in the 4H-type stacking sequence along the c axis.
