The X-ray structure of the title compound, C17H15NOS3, unambiguously e
stablishes the nature of the unexpected and non-cyclized compound obta
ined by reacting 2-aminobenzenethiol with 1-(2-thienyl)-3-(2-thienyl)-
2-propen-1-one. The molecule as a whole is not planar, the two thienyl
rings, P1 and P2, and the phenyl ring, P3, are planar and make (P1, P
2), (P1, P3) and (P2, P3) dihedral angles of 75.9 (2), 31.9 (2) and 70
.7 (1)degrees, respectively. Atoms S1 and O exhibit a Z conformation a
round the C10--C14 bond.
