2-(5-Fluoro-2,3-dioxoindolin-1-yl)ethyl 4-methylpiperazine-1-carbodithioate
Abstract
In the title compound, C16H18FN3O2S2, the methylpiperazine ring adopts a chair conformation, while the (2,3-dioxoindolin-1-yl)ethyl unit is linked to one of the N atoms of the piperazine ring via the carbodithioate group. In the crystal, each molecule is linked to its neighbors within the (overline{1}03) plane through weak C—H(methylene)...O, C—H(aryl)...O and C—H(methylene)...S interactions. Perpendicular to this plane molecules are connected through intermolecular short N...π(pyrrole ring) contacts [N...C centroid = 3.232 (2) Å], another set of C—H(methylene)...O interactions and through short contacts between carbodithioate S atoms and the pyrrole rings [C...centroid = 3.695 (3), S...centroid = 3.403 (2) Å].
