2-(2-Nitro-phen-yl)-1,3-benzothia-zole.
In the title compound, C(13)H(8)N(2)O(2)S, the essentially planar benzothia-zole system [maximum deviation = -0.012 (1) Å for the S atom] is oriented at a dihedral angle of 48.3 (1)° with respect to the benzene ring. The nitro group is substanti-ally twisted from the plane of its attached benzene ring [dihedral angle = 52.0 (1)°]. The crystal packing features C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which generate C(6) helical chains propagating along [010]. Weak C-H⋯π inter-actions also occur in the crystal.
