N,N-Dimethyl-2-[(1E)-({[(methylsulfanyl)methanethioyl]amino}imino)methyl]aniline

Abstract

In the title compound, C11H15N3S2, the dithiocarbazate moiety is rotated by 18.73 (8)° with respect to the benzene ring. The dithiocarbazate group adopts an E configuration with respect to the C=N bond of the benzylidene group. Furthermore, in the solid state the compound exists in the thione tautomeric form. In the crystal, molecules are linked by pairs of weak N—H...S hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers which are arranged in layers parallel to (010).
