Abstract: In title compound, C₇H₈N₂S, the five-membered rings are twisted by a dihedral angle of 5.17 (10)°. Two intermolecular N-HN and C-HN hydrogen bonds to the same acceptor N atom form seven-membered rings, producing R₂¹(7) ring motifs. These interactions link neighbouring molecules into one-dimensional chains extended along the c axis. The crystal structure is further stabilized by weak intermolecular C-H interactions.
