T. Hang and Q. Ye

Abstract: In the title compound, C₁₃H₁₀N₂S, the dihedral angle between the imidazole and thiophene rings is 16.89 (19)°, and the double bond adopts an E configuration. In the crystal structure, N-HN hydrogen bonds link the molecules into rows along b. There is also evidence of weak C-HS interactions.
