Abstract:
The title compound C(18)H(16)N(2)S(2), crystallizes with two independent half-mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit, in one of which the thio-phene rings are disordered in a 0.67:0.33 ratio. Each independent mol-ecule lies across a crystallographic centre of symmetry. The dihedral angle between central (half) benzene ring and the thiophene ring is 11.82°.
