5-(2-Methyl­phen­yl)-1,3,4-thia­diazol-2-amine

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(9)H(9)N(3)S, contains two crystallographically independent mol­ecules, in which the thia­diazole and tolyl rings are oriented at dihedral angles of 32.25 (3) and 74.50 (3)°. An intra­molecular C—H⋯S inter­action results in the formation of a five-membered ring. In the crystal structure, inter­molecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into chains along the a axis. A π–π contact between the thia­diazole rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.910 (3) Å] may further stabilize the structure. There is also a weak C—H⋯π inter­action.
