The Mo(VI) atom in the title complex, [Mo(C(11)H(13)N(3)OS)O(2)(C(2)H(6)OS)], is N,N',O-coordinated by the dianionic tridentate ligand, two mutually cis oxide O atoms and a dimethyl sulfoxide O atom, defining a distorted octa-hedral N(2)O(4) donor set. The most prominent feature of the crystal packing is the formation of inversion dimers via pairs of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and eight-membered {⋯HNMoO}(2) loops. The Schiff base ligand is disordered over two orientations of equal occupancy.
