1,1,2,2-Tetrakis(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)ethene chloroform disolvate

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title solvate, C30H16N4S4·2CHCl3, contains one half-molecule of tetrakis(2-benzothiazolyl)ethene, the complete molecule being generated by inversion symmetry, and one molecule of chloroform. Pairs of the benzothiazole rings attached to the same carbon atom are almost perpendicular to each other, with an angle between planes of 85.74 (4)°. In the crystal, weak C—H...N and C—H...Cl interactions generate a three-dimensional network.
