5-Benzyl-5-phenyl[1,3]dithiolo[4,5-d]-[1,3]dithiole-2-thione.

ABSTRACT

In the title compound, C(17)H(12)S(5), the dithiole ring bearing the aryl substituents assumes an envelope conformation with the maximum deviation from planarity being -0.053 A. The phenyl and benzyl rings are twisted by 33.0 (1) and 31.1 (1) degrees, respectively, out of the dithiole plane. The crystal packing is governed by short S...S interactions, with the shortest being 3.550 (2) A.
