Abstract: In the title compound, C₁₈H₁₅N₃S, the limited extent of delocalization between the double-bond systems is shown by the mutual rotation of substituents about the formal single bonds NC-C(=C-S) and (S-C=)C-C(=CH₂) by 26 and 49°, respectively. Molecules are linked by four C-HN and one SN contact.
