C22H32N4OS4, triclinic, <*>, a = 10.874(3), b = 15.835(4), c = 8.683(3) Angstroem, α = 101.91(1), β = 106.41(1), γ = 107.46(1) deg, V = 1296.8 Angstroem³, Z = 2, D_x = 1.271 Mg m^-3, μ(Cu Kα) = 33.9 mm^-1.The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to a final R value of 0.047 for 4177 observed reflections.The planarity of the pyridine-NO-N-pyridine group allows charge delocalization along the central part of the molecule.
