Abstract: The Sn atom in the title compound, [Sn(C₆H₅)₂(C₃S₅)(C₂H₆OS)], exists within a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry defined by two S atoms of the 1,2-dithiole-3-thione-4,5-dithiolate dianion, two ipso-C atoms from the phenyl groups, and the O atom of the dimethyl sulfoxide molecule. In this description, one of the S atoms and the O occupy axial positions. In the crystal, centrosymmetrically related molecules associate via pairs of C-HS contacts, forming dimeric aggregates.
