description

The title compound ¿alternatively, 3-methyl-2-[oxido(oxo)hydrazono]-2,3-dihydro-1,3-thiazole¿, C(4)H(5)N(3)O(2)S, was obtained by methylation of N-(2-thiazolyl)nitramine. The molecule lies on a mirror plane and the thiazole ring is planar, regular in shape and aromatic. The S atom participates in the aromatic sextet via an electron pair on the 3p(z) orbital. In the crystal, the molecules are arranged in parallel layers, bound to each other by weak C-H.O and C-H.N hydrogen bonds and by S.O dipolar interactions, with an interlayer separation of 3.23 A.
