Description
Summary:In the title compound, C15H17NOS·H2O, the benzene and pyridine rings form a dihedral angle of 71.18 (2)°. The intramolecular S...O distance [2.737 (3) Å] is shorter than expected and, in terms of hybridization principles, the N—C—S angle [114.1 (2)°] is smaller than expected. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular O—H...O and weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds. In addition, weak π–π stacking interactions with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.778 (3) Å are also observed.
