The compound (E)-1-(1-benzothiophen-3-yl)-N-(2-methyl-4-nitrophenyl)methanimine was prepared by refluxing a mixture of a solution containing 1-benzothiophene-3-carbaldehyde (0.0102 g 0.063 mmol) in 20 ml ethanol and a solution containing 2-Methyl-4-nitroaniline (0.0095 g 0.063 mmol) in 20 ml ethanol. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h under reflux. The crystals of(E)-4-((benzo[b]thiophen-3-ylmethylene)amino)-3-methylbenzoic acid suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained from ethylalcohol by slow evaporation (yield = 63%; m.p: 153–155°C).
All hydrogen atoms were positioned geometrically with C—H = 0.93 Å and Uiso(H)=1.2Ueq(C) or with C—H = 0.960 Å and 1.5Ueq(Cmethyl).

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. |

Schiff bases, i.e., compounds having a double C=N bond, are used as starting materials in the synthesis of important drugs, such as antibiotics and antiallergic, antiphlogistic, and antitumor substances (Barton et al., 1979; Layer, 1963; Ingold 1969). On the industrial scale, they have a wide range of applications, such as dyes and pigments (Taggi et al., 2002). Schiff bases have also been employed as ligands for the complexation of metal ions (Aydoğan et al., 2001).
The dihedral angle between the C10—C15 benzene and the C1—C9/S1 benzothiophene ring is 53.36 (6)°. The length of the C8=N1 double bond is 1.271 (3) Å, slightly shorter than standard 1.28 Å value of a C=N double bond and consistent with related structures (Ağar et al., 2010; Tecer et al., 2010; Ceylan et al. 2011; Demirtaş et al., 2009).
In the compound, N—O bond distances are 1.218 (4) Å for N2—O1 and N2—O2. The O1—N2—O2 bond angle is 123.4 (3)°. The C1—S1 and C9—S1 bond distances are 1.738 (3) Å and 1.709 (3) Å, respectively. The C—S bond distances are compatible with the literature (Dege et al. 2006; Demirtaş et al., 2009).
