• The title compound, $$C_{19}H_{17}PS_2$$, results from the direct deprotonation of di­phenyl­methyl­phosphine sulfide and subsequent reaction with diphenyl di­sulfide. The C-P and C-S bond lengths of 1.8242 (18) and 1.8009 (18) Å, respectively, of the central P-C-S linkage are comparable to those found in the sulfonyl analogue, but are considerably longer than those reported for the dimetallated sulfonyl compound. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings of the di­phenyl­methyl moiety is 69.46 (7)°. No distinct inter­molecular inter­actionsThe title compound, $$C_{19}H_{17}PS_2$$, results from the direct deprotonation of di­phenyl­methyl­phosphine sulfide and subsequent reaction with diphenyl di­sulfide.
