3-(2H-1,3-Benzodioxol-5-ylmethyl)-2-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one
Abstract
The title molecule, C18H17NO4S, features a 1,3-thiazolidine ring that is twisted about the S—C(methylene) bond. With reference to this ring, the 1,3-benzodioxole and benzene rings lie to either side and form dihedral angles of 69.72 (16) and 83.60 (14)°, respectively, with the central ring. Significant twisting in the molecule is confirmed by the dihedral angle of 79.91 (13)° formed between the outer rings. Linear supramolecular chains along the a-axis direction mediated by C—H...O interactions feature in the crystal packing.
