Source of material

3-(4-Chlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylthiourea was synthesized from reaction of 4-chlorophenyl isothiocyanate and dimethylamine (1.1 equivalents) in anhydrous dioxane at low temperature for 1 h. After work-up, the crude product obtained was purified by crystallization from hexane to give the title compound (95%) as colourless crystals, Mp 151–152 °C (lit. 149–151 °C [1], 151 °C [2], 150–151.5 °C [3], 152 °C [4]).

Experimental details

All hydrogen atoms were placed in calculated positions and refined using a riding model. Methyl C—H bonds were fixed at 0.96 Å and the groups were allowed to spin about the C—C bond with displacement parameters 1.5 times Ueq(C). Aromatic C—H distances were set to 0.93 Å and N—H set to 0.86 Å with Uiso set to 1.2 times the Ueq for the parent atoms. The absolute structure was established by a refinement of the Flack parameter (0.09(2)) using 423 quotients [(I+) − (I−)]/[(I+) + (I−)].

Discussion

Thioureas can be synthesized using various procedures and have been used as intermediates in organic syntheses [5; 6; 7; 8; 9; 10; 11]. Some derivatives show interesting applications as biologically active compounds [12; 13; 14; 15; 16; 17].

In the crystal structure of the title compound, the asymmetric unit comprises two crystallographically independent molecules of C9H11ClN2S. In the two molecules, the dimethylthiourea groups are planar (apart from the methyl H atoms). A twist between the chlorophenyl and dimethylthiourea groups is observed in the molecules, in a manner similar to 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea [18] and 1,1-dimethyl-3-phenylthiourea [19]. The angles between the least-squares planes through the chlorophenyl and dimethylthiourea groups are 55.89(15) and 58.01(12)°, respectively. N—H⋯S interactions occur, forming chains along [001] with geometry: N1⋯S1 = 3.549(4) Å, N1—H1⋯S1 = 128.3° and N3⋯S2 = 3.530(4) Å, N3—H3a⋯S2 = 127.1°
