1,4-Bis[2-(1,3-Benzothiazol-2-yl)-Phenoxy]butane

Abstract

The mol-ecule of the title compound, C30H24N2O2S2, adopts a transoid conformation consistent with the inversion centre located at the mid-point of the central C - C single bond, resulting in one half mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit. The dihedral angle between the coplanar benzothia-zole ring system and the benzene ring is 11.06 (7)°. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked by weak inter-molecular π-π inter-actions between thia-zole and benzene rings to form a three-dimensional network.
