Abstract: The title compound, C₁₅H₁₅NS, crystallizes with two crystallographically independent and conformationally almost identical molecules in the asymmetric unit. Both molecules are non-planar, the dihedral angle between the two phenyl planes in each molecule being 76.41 (11) and 86.65 (10)°. An anti conformation of the amide and thio groups is observed in the thioamide fragment. In the solid state, the structure is stabilized by weak C-HS intramolecular interactions, intermolecular N-HS hydrogen bonds and C-H interactions.
