Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of (2Z,2'E)-2,2'-(3-methoxy-3-phenylpropane-1,2-diylidene)bis(hydrazine-1-carbothioamide) dimethylformamide monosolvate.

The overall molecular configuration of the title compound, C₁₂H₁₆N₆OS₂•C₃H₇NO, is stabilized in the solid state by intramolecular C--H• • •N, C--H• • •O, N--H• • •N and N--H• • •O interactions, forming S(5) ring motifs. In the crystal, molecules are linked to each other and solvent dimethylformamide molecules by N--H• • •S, N--H• • •O, C--H• • •O and C--H• • •S hydrogen bonds, forming a three dimensional network. The phenyl ring of the title compound is disordered over two sites with an occupancy ratio of 0.57 (4):0.43 (4). A Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed to quantify the contributions of the different intermolecular interactions, indicating that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H• • •H (38.7%), S• • •H / H• • •S (24.0%), C• • •H / H• • •C (18.5%) and N• • •H / H• • •N (9.8%) interactions.
