title: (4S,5S)-2,2-Dimethyl-4,5-bis-(3-methyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazol-1-yl-meth-yl)-1,3-dioxolane.
abstract: In the chiral title compound, C(15)H(22)N(4)O(2)S(2), there are two mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit with distinctly different conformations, as quanti-fied by torsion angles. The dihedral angles between the thio-imidazole rings are 81.59 (5) and 67.04 (4)°. One mol-ecule exhibits local twofold rotation symmetry, while the other displays no local symmetry. Inter-molecular C-H⋯O and C-H⋯S inter-actions are observed.
