Crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis and contact enrichment ratios of 1-(2,7-di-methyl-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-yl)-2-(1,3-di-thio-lan-2-yl-idene)ethanone monohydrate.

ABSTRACT

In the title hydrated hybrid compound C14H14N2OS2·H2O, the planar imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine ring system is linked to the 1,3-di-thiol-ane moiety by an enone bridge. The atoms of the C-C bond in the 1,3-di-thiol-ane ring are disordered over two positions with occupancies of 0.579 (14) and 0.421 (14) and both disordered rings adopt a half-chair conformation. The oxygen atom of the enone bridge is involved in a weak intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond, which generates an S(6) graph-set motif. In the crystal, the hybrid mol-ecules are associated in R 2 2(14) dimeric units by weak C-H⋯O inter-actions. O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the water mol-ecules, forming infinite self-assembled chains along the b-axis direction to which the dimers are connected via O-H⋯N hydrogen bonding. Analysis of inter-molecular contacts using Hirshfeld surface analysis and contact enrichment ratio descriptors indicate that hydrogen bonds induced by water mol-ecules are the main driving force in the crystal packing formation.
