Dimethyl N-(4-phenyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)-dithioimidocarbonate

Abstract

The title compound, C12H12N2S3, was synthesized by the reaction of CS2 and CH3I with 2-amino-4-phenyl-1,3-thiazole in the presence of concentrated aqueous NaOH. The bond lengths and angles are normal. The crystal packing is stabilized by van der Waals forces.
