title: S-1,3-Benzothia-zol-2-yl (2Z)-2-(2-amino-1,3-thia-zol-4-yl)-2-(methoxy-imino)-ethane-thio-ate.
abstract: The title compound, C(13)H(10)N(4)O(2)S(3), is an acyl-ating agent which belongs to the thia-zole class of organic compounds. The dihedral angle between the benzene and thiazole rings, which are fused to each other, is 1.2 (2)° so the overall benzothiazole system is almost planar. Inter-molecular N-H⋯N inter-actions and weak C-H⋯O inter-actions between symmetry-related mol-ecules stabilize the crystal structure, forming three different ring motifs [R(2) (2)(8), R(2) (2)(10) and R(2) (2)(16)] in three dimensions.
