Synthesis and redetermination of the crystal structure of salicyl­aldehyde N(4)-morpholino­thio­semi­carbazone

The structure of the title compound (systematic name: N-{[(2-hy­droxy­phen­yl)methyl­idene]amino}­morpholine-4-carbo­thio­amide), C(12)H(15)N(3)O(2)S, was prev­iously determined (Koo et al., 1977 ▸) using multiple-film equi-inclination Weissenberg data, but has been redetermined with higher precision to explore its conformation and the hydrogen-bonding patterns and supra­molecular inter­actions. The mol­ecular structure shows intra­molecular O—H⋯N and C—H⋯S inter­actions. The configuration of the C=N bond is E. The mol­ecule is slightly twisted about the central N—N bond. The best planes through the phenyl ring and the morpholino ring make an angle of 43.44 (17)°. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are connected into chains by N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which combine to generate sheets lying parallel to (002). The most prominent contribution to the surface contacts are H⋯H contacts (51.6%), as concluded from a Hirshfeld surface analysis.
