Benzyl (E)-3-(2-methyl-benzyl-idene)dithio-carbazate.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(16)H(16)N(2)S(2), was obtained from the condensation reaction of benzyl dithio-carbazate and 2-methyl-benzaldehyde. The asymmetric unit contains two independent mol-ecules. In both mol-ecules, the methyl-phenyl ring and the dithio-carbazate fragment are located on opposite sides of the C=N bond, showing an E conformation. In each mol-ecule, the dithio-carbazate fragment is approximately planar, the r.m.s deviations being 0.018 and 0.025?Å. The mean plane of dithio-carbazate group is oriented at dihedral angles of 7.9?(3) and 68.24?(12)°, respectively, to the methyl-phenyl and phenyl rings in one mol-ecule, while the corresponding angles in the other mol-ecule are 10.9?(3) and 69.76?(16)°. Inter-molecular N-H?S hydrogen bonding occurs in the crystal structure to generate inversion dimers for both molecules.
