4‐(Benzylideneamino)‐3‐(2‐pyridyl)‐1H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐5(4H)‐thione

The title compound, C14H11N5S, was prepared by the reaction of 4-amino-5-(3-pyrid­yl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5(4H)-thione and benzaldehyde with ethanol at room temperature. The dihedral angles formed by the benzene and pyridine rings with the triazole ring are 46.2 (1) and 35.1 (2)°. There are weak inter- and intra­molecular hydrogen bonds in the crystal structure.
