The title molecule, C12H10N2O3S, is nonplanar with an interplanar angle of 33.44 (7)° between the benzene and thiophene rings. In the crystal there exist only weak intermolecular C—H⋯O interactions, π–π interactions between the benzene rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.7465 (14) Å] and X—Y⋯π interactions to the thiophene and benzene rings [N⋯centroid distances = 3.718 (3) and 3.355 (3) Å, respectively]. Intermolecular C—H⋯O interactions link the molecules into chains parallel to the a axis.

The title compound was prepared under reflux at room temperature of a mixture of two solutions: One contained 5-nitro-2-thiophene-carboxaldehyde (0.016 g, 0.100 mmol) in 20 ml of absolute ethanol, while the other 4-methoxyaniline (0.012 g, 0.100 mmol) in 20 ml of absolute ethanol. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h under reflux. Yellow, transparent crystals were obtained by slow evaporation from ethanol solution at room temperature (yield 68 wt. %; m.p. 414–417 K). The average size of the prismatic crystals was about 0.12 × 0.45 × 0.80 mm.

nevertheless, they were situated into the idealized positions and refined in the riding atom formalism. The applied constraints: Cmethyl—Hmethyl=0.96, Caryl—Haryl=0.93 Å. Uiso(Hmethyl) = 1.5Ueq(Cmethyl), Uiso(Haryl) = 1.2Ueq(Caryl).The ═N bond, are used as starting materials in the synthesis of important drugs, such as antibiotics and antiallergic, antiphlogistic, and antitumor substances (Layer, 1963; Ingold, 1969; Barton & Ollis, 1979). On the industrial scale, they have a wide range of applications, such as dyes and pigments (Taggi et al., 2002).
i. e. the compounds having a double CThe title molecule is shown in Fig. 1. The molecule is non-planar, with an interplanar angle of 33.44 (7)° between the benzene and the substituted thiophene rings. The length of the C11═N2 double bond is 1.268 (3) Å. This value agrees well with the analogous bond reported elsewhere (Ceylan et al. 2011; Özdemir Tari & Işık, 2012). In the crystal (Fig. 2), two different C—H···O intermolecular interactions (Table 1) generate chains of molecules extending along the a axis. The distance 3.7465 (14) Å between the centroids of the neighbouring benzene rings related by the 1-x, -y, 1-z indicates a π-electron—π-electron ring interaction. Intermolecular X—Y···π-electron ring interactions are also present in the (N1—O1···Cg1i=3.718 (3) Å and N1—O2···Cg2ii=3.355 (3) Å where Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of the rings C7—C10/S1 (substituted thiophene) and C1—C6 (benzene), respectively, and the symmetry codes i and ii correspond to 2-x, -y, -z and x, 1/2-y, -1/2+z, 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. |

The Schiff bases, i. e. the 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 (Layer, 1963; Ingold, 1969; Barton & Ollis, 1979). On the industrial scale, they have a wide range of applications, such as dyes and pigments (Taggi et al., 2002).
The title molecule is shown in Fig. 1. The molecule is non-planar, with an interplanar angle of 33.44 (7)° between the benzene and the substituted thiophene rings. The length of the C11═N2 double bond is 1.268 (3) Å. This value agrees well with the analogous bond reported elsewhere (Ceylan et al. 2011; Özdemir Tari & Işık, 2012). In the crystal (Fig. 2), two different C—H···O intermolecular interactions (Table 1) generate chains of molecules extending along the a axis. The distance 3.7465 (14) Å between the centroids of the neighbouring benzene rings related by the symmetry operation 1-x, -y, 1-z indicates a π-electron—π-electron ring interaction. Intermolecular X—Y···π-electron ring interactions are also present in the crystal structure (N1—O1···Cg1i=3.718 (3) Å and N1—O2···Cg2ii=3.355 (3) Å where Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of the rings C7—C10/S1 (substituted thiophene) and C1—C6 (benzene), respectively, and the symmetry codes i and ii correspond to 2-x, -y, -z and x, 1/2-y, -1/2+z, respectively.
