^+-, monoclinic, P2₁, with a = 12.395(2), b = 15.459(2), c = 14.320(2) Angstroem, β = 93.35(2) deg, Z = 8, V = 2739.3 Angstroem³, D_x = 1.195 Mg m^-3.The non-centrosymmetric structure has been refined to R(F²) = 0.110 for 4991 reflexions and 892 parameters.The structure is built up of two independent dimers with pseudo symmetry 2/m.Each pseudocentrosymmetric dimer is composed of two cations and two anions connected by eight N-H...S hydrogen bonds (of which one is weak in one of the dimers).The dimers are packed at van der Waals distances.
