The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C11H7N5OS, contains two independent molecules (1 and 2). The thiophene ring in molecule 2 is rotationally disordered (flip disorder) by ca 180° (around the single C—C bond, to which it is attached) over two sites with the site-occupation factors of 0.9 and 0.1. These two orientations of the thiophene ring in molecule 2 are not equivalent. In the crystal, molecules are linked by intermolecular N—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen bonds into ribbons parallel to (022) along the a axis. Within the (022) planes, these ribbons are connected by van der Waals interactions and between the (022) planes by N—H...O hydrogen bonds. In molecule 1, Hirshfeld surface analysis showed that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from N...H/H...N (27.1%), H...H (17.6%), C...H/H...C (13.6%) and O...H/H...O (9.3%) interactions, while in molecule 2, H...H (25.4%) interactions are the most significant contributors to the crystal packing.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
