Abstract

The title compound, C8H8N2OS, is almost planar, the C—C—O—C torsion angle associated with the meth­oxy group being 0.72 (1)°. Inter­molecular amine N—H⋯N hydrogen-bonding inter­actions form inversion dimers [graph set R22(8)] which are extended into chains along the b axis through amine N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
