Summary: | In the title compound, C19H15N5S, the thiophene ring is disordered in a 0.6:0.4 ratio by an approximate 180° rotation of the ring around the C—C bond linking it to the pyridine ring. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by N—H...N hydrogen bonds into dimers with an R22(12) motif, forming chains along the b-axis direction. These chains are connected to each other by further N—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. Furthermore, N—H...π and π–π [centroid–centroid separations = 3.899 (8) and 3.7938 (12) Å] interactions also contribute to the crystal cohesion. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicated that the most important contributions to the surface contacts are from H...H (46.1%), N...H/H...N (20.4%) and C...H/H...C (17.4%) interactions.
