In the title compound, C13H15FN2S, the dihydropyrimidine ring is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.086 (3) Å from the mean plane of the rest of the ring for the dimethylated C atom. The benzene ring is almost perpendicular to the dihydropyrimidine ring, with a dihedral angle of 83.97 (14)°. The crystal packing is characterized by centrosymmetric dimers resulting from pairs of intermolecular N—H⋯S hydrogen bonds. There are also C—H⋯π interactions.

A procedure similar to that used for the preparation of 4,4,6-Trimethyl-1-(3-chlorophenyl)-3,4-dihydropyrimidine-2-(1H)-thione (Yamin & Salem,2011) was followed. Equimolar quantities of thiocyanic acid and 3-fluoroaniline (5.4 mmol) in acetone were stirred for 2–3 h. Colourless crystals of 78% yield were obtained after 3 days by evaporation at room temperature. Melting point 456.8–458.9 K.
H atoms on the C and N atoms were positioned geometrically with C—H= 0.93 (aromatic and olefinic), 0.96 Å (methyl) and N—H = 0.86 Å respectively, and constrained to ride and rotate (for Me groups) on their parent atoms with Uiso=xeq(parent atom) where x=1.2 for N, aromatic C and olefinic C and x=1.5 for methyl C. There is a highest peak and deepest hole of 0.45 from H10 and 0.76Å from F1 atom the respectively.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Pyrimidine-2(1H)-ones/thiones are calcium channel blocker compounds (Rovnyak et al., 1995). They also have other biological activities such as antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral (Kappe, 2000; Alam et al., 2005; Sriram et al., 2006; Leite et al., 2006). The 4,4,6-trimethyl-1-aryl-3,4-dihydropyrimidine-2-(1H)-thiones open a new series of 3,4-dihydro pyrimidine-2-(1H)-thione derivatives following publication of 4,4,6- trimethyl-1-phenyl-3,4-dihydropyrimidine-2-(1H)-thione (Yamin et al., 2005; Ismail et al., 2007). The title compound is isomorphous to 4,4,6-trimethyl-1-(3-chlorophenyl)-3,4-dihydropyrimidine-2-(1H)-thione (Yamin & Salem, 2011) and 4,4,6-trimethyl-1-(3-methylphenyl)-3,4-dihydropyrimidine-2-(1H)-thione (Saeed et al., 2010). The dihydropyrimidine (N1,N2,C1—C4) ring is planar with maximum deviation of 0.086 (3)Å for C4 atom from the least square plane. The benzene ring is perpendicular to the dihydropyrimidine with dihedral angle of 83.97 (14)°, slightly smaller than that in the meta- chloro analog (86.62 (13)°). The bond lenghts and angles are in normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987) and are comparable to those in the above mentioned analogs. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by N1—H1A···S1 intermolecular hydrogen bonds (see symmetry code in Table 2) to form centrosymmetric dimers parallel to the ab face (Fig 2). There is also a C9—H9A···π interaction involving the pyrimidine (Cg1: N1/N2/(C1—C4)) ring (Table 2).
