ABSTRACT In the title compound, C18H16N2S2, a crystallographic inversion centre lies at the centre of the benzene ring, and the two terminal 4-mercaptopyridyl groups adopt an anti geometry. Each benzene ring makes a dihedral angle of 55.4 (1)° with the plane of the benzene fragment. The crystal structure is stabilized by C—H...π interactions between a benzene H atom and a pyridyl ring of a neighbouring molecule. In addition, the crystal structure exhibits intermolecular C—H...N interactions.
