There are two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit of the title molecule, C8H9N3S2, both of which exhibit an E conformation with the pyridine ring and dithiocarbazate fragment located on opposite sides of the C=N bond. The pyridine ring and dithiocarbazate group are approximately coplanar, with dihedral angles of 4.74 (1) and 8.77 (1)° between their planes in the two molecules. In the crystal, molecules are linked to each other via N—HN hydrogen bonds, forming zigzag chains parallel to [10-1].
