2-(1,3-Benzothiazol-2-ylsulfanyl)-1-phenylethanone

In the molecule of the title compound, C15H11NOS2, the 1,3-benzothiazole ring is oriented at a dihedral angle of 6.61 (6)° with respect to the phenyl ring. In the crystal structure, intermolecular C—H...O interactions link the molecules in a herring-bone arrangement along the b axis and π–π contacts between the thiazole and phenyl rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.851 (1) ] may further stabilize the structure.
