Abstract: In the title molecule, C₁₆H₁₆N₂S₄, the two dithiocarbamate groups, which are perpendicular to each other, are linked by an S-S bond. The dithiocarbamate groups adopt a trans-planar conformation and form a dihedral angle of 89.75 (8)° with each other. The phenyl rings make dihedral angles of 77.3 (2) and 89.2 (2)° with the dithiocarbamate plane. The C-N bonds in the dithiocarbamate groups show partial double-bond character.
