4 '-tert-Butyl-5-chloro-3H-spiro[1,3-benzothiazole-2,1 '-cyclohexane]

Abstract

In the title compound, C16H22ClNS, the nine-membered 2,3-dihydro-1,3-benzothiazole ring system is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.025 (2) angstrom for the N atom. Its plane is almost perpendicular to the main plane of the substituted cyclohexane ring, which adopts a chair conformation. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by C-H center dot center dot center dot pi interactions.
