Abstract :
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C23H20N2OS, contains one slightly bent molecule. The naphthalene ring system and the thiazole ring are twisted with respect to each other, making a dihedral angle of 13.69 (10)°; the anisole ring is inclined to the plane of the naphthalene ring system, the dihedral angle being 14.22 (12)°. In the crystal structure, molecules are linked by C—H⋯π interactions, resulting in the formation of sheets parallel to (100). Within the sheets, very weak π–π stacking interactions lead to additional stabilization. Hirshfeld surface analysis and fingerprint plots reveal that the cohesion in the crystal structure is dominated by H⋯H (42.5%) and C⋯H/H⋯C (37.2%) contacts.
