This material crystallize in the triclinic system with space group P-1 (No2), Z=4, with two independent molecules in the unit asymmetric. The crystal packing is governed by N--H¡¤¡¤¡¤O hydrogen bond-type intermolecular interactions, forming infinite one-dimensional chains with graph-set motif C(6). %K Thiohydantoin %K Crystal Structure %K Hydrogen Bonding %U http://article.sapub.org/10.5923.j.ijmc.20130301.01.html
