The title compound, C12H11N3O3S, was obtained as a by-product during the attempted preparation of a thia­zolone. The dihedral angle between the benzene and the thia­zole ring is 85.36 (5)°. The ethanone group is coplanar with the thia­zole ring, whereas the nitro group is twisted away from the attached benzene ring by 10.7 (2)°. Inter­molecular C—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonds, involving the ethanone O atom, link the mol­ecules into a two-dimensional network parallel to the bc plane.

Comment top

The title compound, (I), was obtained as a by-product during the attempted preparation of a thiazolone (Patil et al., 1978). We report here the crystal structure of (I).

The molecule structure of (I) is illustrated in Fig. 1. The benzene ring is twisted out of the central thiazole ring by 85.36 (5)°. The ethanone group is coplanar with the thiazole ring [dihedral angle = 2.6 (1)°] whereas the nitro group forms a dihedral angle of 10.7 (2)° with the attached benzene ring.

In the crystal structure, weak intermolecular C—H···O and N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1), involving the ethanone oxygen atom, link the molecules into a two-dimensional network parallel to the bc plane (Fig. 2).

Experimental top

A mixture of 3-bromopentane-2,4-dione (1.79 g, 0.01 mol) and 1-(4-nitrophenyl)thiourea (1.97 g, 0.01 mol) in acetone (20 ml) was refluxed for 1 h. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, then it was neutralized with 15% sodium carbonate aqueous solution to a pH of 8, to obtain a yellow precipitate. The precipitate was filtered off and recrystallized from acetone to give the crude product. The solid product was dissolved in ethanol evaporated gradually at room temperature to afford single crystals of the title compound (m.p. 441–441.5 K). 1HNMR(CDCl3)σp.p.m.: 8.42(d,2H,Ar), 7.50(d,2H,Ar), 2.36(s,1H,CH3), 2.25(s,3H,CH3). MS.(m/z,%): 276(M+,100), 262 (15), 230 (20), 163 (80), 117 (55), 76 (30).

Refinement top

Atom H6 was located in a difference Fourier map and refined isotropically with the N—H bond restraint of 0.86 (2) Å. Methyl H atoms were placed in calculated positions, with C—H = 0.96 Å, and torsion angles were refined to fit the electron density [Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C)]. Other H atoms were placed in calculated positions, with C—H = 0.93 Å, and refined using a riding model, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
