In the title comound, C8H8N4S, one of the two independent mol­ecules is essentially planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.025 Å), while the other is slightly buckled (r.m.s. deviation = 0.131 Å) with the guanidine unit bent out of the plane of the fused-ring system by 16.8 (1)°. In the crystal, inter­molecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds between the two independent mol­ecules give rise to a hydrogen-bonded dimer. Addtional weak inter­molecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds connect these dimers into chains along [010]. An intra­molecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bond is also observed in each independent mol­ecule.

Comment top

The title compound was synthesized as an intermediate for the synthesis of other heterocyclic compounds (Dolzhenko et al., 2006). In the title comound, C8H8N4, one of the two independent molecules of is essentially planar (r.m.s. deviation 0.025 Å) while the other is slightly buckled (r.m.s. deviation 0.131 Å) with the guanidine unit bent out of the plane of the fused-ring system by 16.8 (1) °. In the crystal a pair of intermolecular N-H···N hydrogen bonds between the two independent molecules give rise to a hydrogen-bonded dimer (Fig. 1). Addtional weak intermolecular N-H···N hydrogen bonds connect these dimers into one-dimensional chains along [010].

Experimental top

2-Aminothiophenol (0.050 mol) was dissolved in 10% sulfuric acid (50 ml) and to the solution was added cyanoduanidine (0.075 mol). The mixture was heated to give a clear solution. To the cool solution was added 50% sodium hydroxide (10 mol) to precipitate the product. X-ray quality crystals were recrystallized from ethanol in 90% yield. The synthesis was based on a reported procedure (Dolzhenko et al., 2006).

Refinement top

Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions [C–H 0.93 Å; Uiso(H) 1.2Ueq(C)] and were included in the refinement in a riding-model approximation. The amino H-atoms were located in a difference Fourier map, and were refined with a distance restraint of N–H 0.86±0.01 Å; the Uiso(H) values were refined.
