Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of (Z)-4-{[4-(3-methyl-3-phenylcyclobutyl)thiazol-2-yl]amino}-4-oxobut-2-enoic acid

Abstract

The title cyclobutyl compound, C18H18N2O3S, was synthesized by the interaction of 4-(3-methyl-3-phenylcyclobutyl)thiazol-2-amine and maleic anhydride, and crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121 with Z′ = 1. The molecular geometry is partially stabilized by an intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond forming an S11(7) ring motif. The molecule is non-planar with a dihedral angle of 88.29 (11)° between the thiazole and benzene rings. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by O—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming supramolecular ribbons with C11(9) chain motifs. To further analyze the intermolecular interactions, a Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed. The results indicate that the most important contributions to the overall surface are from H...H (43%), C...H (18%), O...H (17%) and N...H (6%), interactions.
