The title compound, [Ge(CH3)2(C4N2S2)], crystallizes in the space group Pnma, with two half-mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. The C atoms of the two methyl groups lie on the same mirror plane as the Ge atom and the –C=C– group. The S atoms and nitrile groups are each symmetry-related across the mirror plane. The structure is stabilized by intermolecular C—H...N hydrogen interactions.

Special details top

Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All su's are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles

Refinement. Refinement on F2 for ALL reflections except those flagged by the user for potential systematic errors. Weighted R-factors wR and all goodnesses of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The observed criterion of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating -R-factor-obs etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R-factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
