(E)-5-(3,5-Dimethylphenyl)-N-[4-(methylsulfanyl)benzylidene]-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine

Abstract

The title compound, C18H17N3S2, was synthesized by the reaction of 5-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine and 4-(methylsulfanyl)benzaldehyde. An intramolecular C—H...S hydrogen bond results in the formation of a planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.003 Å) five-membered ring. In the crystal structure, intermolecular C—H...N hydrogen bonds link the molecules to form layers parallel to (011).
