Abstract
The crystal structure of 3-(morpholin-4-ylmethyl)-1,3-benzothiazole-2-thione, C12H14N2OS2, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group (P21/c). This benzothiazole derivative is a mannich base. Methylene group bridges the molecules of 2-mercapto benzothiazole and morpholine with an angle at the methylene bridge being 110.31(12)° [N–C–N]. The dihedral angle between the benzothiazole and morpholine planes is 70.37(5)°. The morpholine ring adopts a chair conformation. The molecular structure is stabilized by the weak C–H···S hydrogen bond in addition to the C–H···π and π···π interactions. Present study reports the conformation and hydrogen bonding interactions. Spectral analysis complement the structure analyzed.Graphical AbstractThe compound 3-(morpholin-4-ylmethyl)-1,3-benzothiazole-2-thione is a Mannich base. The crystal structure gives a picture of a methylene group bridging the molecules of 2-mercapto benzothiazole and morpholine.
