Synthesis and crystal structure of (E)-1,2-bis-[2-(methyl-sulfan-yl)phen-yl]diazene.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, C14H14N2S2, was obtained by transmetallation of 2,2'-bis-(tri-methyl-stann-yl)azo-benzene with methyl lithium, and subsequent quenching with dimethyl di-sulfide. The asymmetric unit comprises two half-mol-ecules, the other halves being completed by inversion symmetry at the midpoint of the azo group. The two mol-ecules show only slight differences with respect to N=N, S-N and aromatic C=C bonds or angles. Hirshfeld surface analysis reveals that except for one weak H⋯S inter-action, inter-molecular inter-actions are dominated by van der Waals forces only.
