Abstract

The title compound, C(15)H(12)N(2)OS(2), is an example of a push-pull butadiene in which the electron-releasing methyl-sulfanyl groups and electron-withdrawing nitrile groups on either end of the butadiene chain enhance the conjugation in the system. Short intra-molecular C-H⋯S inter-actions are observed. In the crystal structure, an O⋯C short contact of 2.917 (3) Å is observed.
