Potassium dithioferrate is the inorganic compound with the formula KFeS₂. It is a purple solid that is insoluble in water. Regarding its chemical structure, the compound consists of infinite chains of edge-shared anionic FeS₄ tetrahedra. Associated with these chains are potassium ions.^[1] A related family of one-dimensional materials with the formula MFe₂S₃ (M = K, Rb, Cs). These mixed-valence compounds are represented by the mineral rasvumite.^[2]

The compound is prepared by heating iron powder, sulfur, and potassium carbonate at 900 °C. According to the idealized stoichiometry, this reaction is proposed to cogenerate potassium sulfate:^[3]

6 Fe + 13 S + 4 K₂CO₃ → 6 KFeS₂ + K₂SO₄ + 4 CO₂
