The title molecule, C16H24N2OS, is twisted about the central N(H)—C bond with a C—N(H)—C—N torsion angle of −62.67 (15)°. The carbonyl group is twisted out of the plane of the benzene ring, forming a C—C—C=O torsion angle of −25.06 (17)°. In the crystal, molecules related by centres of symmetry are linked by pairs of intermolecular N—H...S hydrogen bonds, forming eight-membered {...HNCS}2 synthons. These are further connected by weak via C—H...O contacts, forming a two-dimensional array in the bc plane.
