Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 4-{(1E)-1-[(carbamothioylamino)imino]ethyl}phenyl propanoate

The title compound, C 12 H 15 N 3 O 2 S, adopts an E configuration with respect to the C=N bond. The propionate group adopts an antiperiplanar ( ap ) conformation. There are short intramolecular N—H...N and C—H...O contacts, forming S (5) and S (6) ring motifs, respectively. In the crystal, molecules are connected into ribbons extending parallel to [010] by pairs of N—H...S interactions, forming rings with R 2 2 (8) graph-set motifs, and by pairs of C—H...S interactions, where rings with the graph-set motif R 2 1 (7) are observed. The O atom of the carbonyl group is disordered over two positions, with a refined occupancy ratio of 0.27 (2):0.73 (2). The studied crystal consisted of two domains.
