title: Benzyl 3-[(E,E)-3-phenyl-prop-2-enyl-idene]dithio-carbazate.
abstract: The title compound, C(17)H(16)N(2)S(2), a dithio-carbazate derivative, adopts an EE configuration with respect to the C=C and C=N double bonds of the propenyl-idine group. The 3-phenyl-prop-2-enyl-idene and dithio-carbazate fragments lie essentially in the same plane, with a maximum deviation from that plane of 0.074 (2) Å, while the dihedral angle between the 3-phenyl-prop-2-enyl-idene and the benzyl group is 77.78 (7)°. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked by an N-H⋯S hydrogen bond and a weak C-H⋯S inter-action involving the terminal thione S atom, forming dimers that are arranged into sheets parallel to the bc plane. The crystal structure is also stabilized by C-H⋯π inter-actions.
