[(Methylcarbamothioyl)disulfanyl]methyl N-methylcarbamodithioate

H. Khan, M. Aziz, C. Neuhausen, G. Murtaza and F. Shaheen

Abstract: The title compound, C₅H₁₀N₂S₅, was unintentionally obtained as the product of an attempted synthesis of a methylcarbamodithioic acid using methylamine and carbon disulfide. In the molecule, two dithiocarbamate groups are bridged by a -CH₂S- unit. The C-S-S-C torsion angle is -90.13 (11)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by N-HS interactions between neighbouring molecules. An intramolecular N-HS hydrogen bond also occurs.
