1-(4-Chloro­benzo­yl)-3-(2,4,6-trichloro­phen­yl)thio­urea hemihydrate

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(14)H(8)Cl(4)N(2)OS·0.5H(2)O, contains two independent mol­ecules with different conformations with respect to the aromatic ring planes, and one water mol­ecule. The bond lengths and angles are typical of thio­urea compounds of this class. The mol­ecule exists in the solid state in its thione form with typical thio­urea C—S and C—O bonds lengths, as well as shortened C—N bonds. The dihedral angles between the two aromatic planes are 66.93 (8) and 60.44 (9)° in the two independent mol­ecules. An intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond stabilizes the mol­ecular conformation and the crystal packing is characterized by N—H⋯O, O—H⋯S and O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds.
