Abstract:
In the title compound, C16H12N2S 3, the two benzothiazole groups are oriented differently with respect to the -CH2- groups, one being approximately staggered and one nearly eclipsed. A sulfur-π interaction of 3.3627 (11) Å is observed between the bridging thio-ether S atom and a thiazole ring. The crystal packing is further stabilized by intermolecular C - H⋯N and C - H⋯π interactions.
