Description:
The title compound, C18H20N4O2S2, is a new 1,3,4-oxadiazole and a key pharmacophore of several biologically active agents. It is composed of a methyl(thiophen-2-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2(3H)-thione moiety linked to a 2-methoxyphenyl unit via a piperazine ring that has a chair conformation. The thiophene ring mean plane lies almost in the plane of the oxadiazole ring, with a dihedral angle of 4.35 (9)°. The 2-methoxyphenyl ring is almost normal to the oxadiazole ring, with a dihedral angle of 84.17 (10)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by weak C—H...S hydrogen bonds and C—H...π interactions, forming layers parallel to the bc plane. The layers are linked via weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds and slipped parallel π–π interactions [intercentroid distance = 3.6729 (10) Å], forming a three-dimensional structure. The thiophene ring has an approximate 180° rotational disorder about the bridging C—C bond.
