Abstract
The synthesis, spectroscopic, and crystallographic characterisation of the title compound, O-methyl m-tolylcarbamothioate, MeOC(=S)N(H)(m-tolyl) (1), are described. The crystallographic study confirms the structure determined by spectroscopy and shows the presence of the thioamide tautomer, a syn-disposition of the thione-S and thioamide-N-H atoms and, in the crystal, thioamide-N-H…S(thione) hydrogen bonding leading to an eight-membered {…HNCS}2 synthon.
