Abstract
The title compound, C13H14Cl2N2S, consists of dichlorophenyl and dihydropyrimidinethione rings, where the pyrimidine ring is in a flattened-boat conformation. In the crystal, N—H⋯S hydrogen bonds link the molecules, enclosing R22(8) ring motifs, into centrosymmetric dimers. Neither π–π stacking nor C—H⋯π(ring) interactions are observed. Hirshfeld surface analysis revealed that the most important contributions for crystal packing are from H⋯H (40.8%), H⋯Cl/Cl⋯H (28.7%) and H⋯S/S⋯H (15.5%) interactions. The volume of the crystal voids and the percentage of free space were calculated to be 135.01 Å3 and 17.99%, showing the crystal packing is not compact. Computational methods indicated an N—H⋯S hydrogen-bonding energy of −58.2 kJ mol−1. Evaluations of the electrostatic, dispersion and total energy frameworks indicate that the crystal cohesion is dominated by electrostatic energy contributions.
期刊介绍:
Acta Crystallographica Section E: Crystallographic Communications is the IUCr''s open-access structural communications journal. It provides a fast, simple and easily accessible publication mechanism for crystal structure determinations of inorganic, metal-organic and organic compounds. The electronic submission, validation, refereeing and publication facilities of the journal ensure rapid and high-quality publication of fully validated structures. The primary article category is Research Communications; these are peer-reviewed articles describing one or more structure determinations with appropriate discussion of the science.
