(+)-(S)-N-[(1-Benzothiophen-2-yl)methylidene]-1-(naphthalen-1-yl)ethylamine

Abstract

In the title compound, C21H17NS, the C=N double bond shows an E conformation. The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the naphthyl residue and the benzothiophene residue is 89.14 (6)°. The crystal packing is stabilized by intermolecular C—H...π interactions, building a ribbon structure along the a axis.
