N-(2-Nitro­phen­yl)thio­phene-2-carbox­amide

The title compound, C₁₁H₈N₂O₃S, shows two mol­ecules per asymmetric unit, with the dihedral angles between the benzene and thio­phene rings of 13.53 (6) and 8.50 (5)° being a notable difference between them. An intra­molecular N—H...O hydrogen-bond in each mol­ecule generates an S(6) ring motif. The crystal packing shows no classical hydrogen bonds with the mol­ecules being packed to form weak C—H...O and C—H...S inter­actions leading to R₂²(9) and R₄⁴(25) rings which are edge-shared, giving layers parallel to (010).
