Abstract

The mol­ecule of the title compound, C10H6O4S2, has crystallographically imposed twofold symmetry. The dihedral angle formed by the furan rings is 80.90 (8)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into chains running parallel to the a axis [C—S—S—C torsion angle = 82.04 (11)°].

Comment

The title compound is a dimeric form of furan-2-carbothioic-S-acid, which has a broad spectrum of applications in the fields of medicinal chemistry (Deshpande et al., 2004) and food additives (Stoll et al., 1967). As a contribution in this field, we report here the crystal structure of the title compound.

The molecular structure of the title compound is shown in Fig. 1. The molecule has crystallographically imposed twofold axis. The furan rings are oriented to form a dihedral angle of 80.90 (8)°. In the crystal structure (Fig. 2), molecules are linked by weak intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) forming chains parallel to the a axis.

Experimental

To a solution of furan-2-carboxylic acid (11.2 g, 0.10 mol) in dioxane, NaHS (11.2 g, 0.20 mol) was added. The mixture was stirred at 50°C for 4 h. Then mixture was concentrated and purified by crystallization from ethyl acetate. Colourless crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained on slow evaporation of the solvent.

Refinement

All H atoms were placed geometrically and treated as riding on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.93–0.96 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H atoms.

Special details

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
