Abstract  Isotope effect on superconductive transition temperature ($T_{\rm c}$) is an essential indicator to examine whether the mechanism of superconductors is conventional. Unconventional isotope effect of BiS$_{2}$-based superconductors has been previously reported in ambient-pressure tetragonal phase. However, to comprehensively ascertain the nature of superconductivity, the investigation of BiS$_{2}$-based system in high-pressure structure is highly desirable. In this work, we carried out the first-principles calculations of phonon spectra and superconductivity in high-pressure monoclinic phase of LaO$_{0.5}$F$_{0.5}$BiS$_{2}$ with $^{32}$S and $^{34}$S, and observed that the corresponding isotope coefficient is $0.13 \le \alpha\le 0.20$. This value is much greater than that of BiS$_{2}$-based superconductors in ambient-pressure phase, but slightly smaller than that of conventional MgB$_{2}$. Taking into account the calculated $T_{\rm c}$ lower than experimental results, we finally conclude that the moderate phonon-mediated pairing plays a significant role in forming superconductivity of BiS$_{2}$-based system in high-pressure phase, moreover, the cooperative multiple paring interactions should also be considered.
