2-(2H-1,3-Benzodioxol-5-yl)-1,3-benzothiazole

Abstract

In the title compound, C14H9O2S, the benzothiazole unit is oriented at a dihedral angle of 7.1 (1)° with respect to the benzodioxole unit. The dioxole ring adopts flattened envelope conformation with the methylene C atom at the flap. The crystal packing is stabilized by π–π interactions [centroid–centroid distances = 3.705 (1) and 3.752 (1) Å], C—H...π interactions and a short S...S contact of 3.485 (1) Å.
