We investigate different nematic and orbital ordered instabilities in the antiferromagnetic insulating phase of BaCoS2, which shows a Néel transition at a surprisingly high temperature of TN∼300 K. Based on ab initio simulations, we discuss several competing orders in terms of magnetic order, orbital composition and structural distortions to identify a set of nematic and orbital ordered states as possible candidates for the ground state. From these considerations we derive an effective spin model of J1−J2−J3 type and discuss the consequences of the most probable, orbital ordered ground state for its parametrization. We finally identify a driving mechanism which allows to explain the high Néel temperature by C4-symmetry breaking through orbital order and draw parallels to other quasi-2D materials such as pnictides.
