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

The title compound, C12H15N3O2S, 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 center dot center dot center dot N and C-H center dot center dot center dot 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 center dot center dot center dot S interactions, forming rings with R-2(2) (8) graph-set motifs, and by pairs of C-H center dot center dot center dot 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.
