Abstract
In the title compound, C12H7N3O2S, the dihedral angle between the planes of the thiazolopyridine ring system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.005 Å) and the benzene ring is 3.94 (6)°. The nitro group is rotated by 7.6 (2)° from its attached ring. In the crystal, extensive aromatic π–π stacking [shortest centroid–centroid separation = 3.5295 (9) Å] links the molecules into (001) sheets.

S1. Introduction
As part of our ongoing studies of thiazolopyridines (El-Hiti et al., 2015), the title compound was prepared by two different processes (El-Hiti, 2003; Smith et al., 1995) and its structure was determined.
S2. Experimental
S2.1. Synthesis and crystallization
2-(3-Nitrophenyl)-1,3-thiazolo[4,5-b]pyridine was obtained in 90% yield from acid hydrolysis (HCl, 5 M) of 3-(diiso-propylaminothiocarbonylthio)-2-(3-nitrophenylcarbonylamino)pyridine under reflux for 5 h (Smith et al., 1995) or in 58% yield from reaction of 3-(diisopropylaminothiocarbonylthio)-2-aminopyridine with 3-nitrobenzoic acid in the presence of phosphorus oxychloride under reflux for 4 h (El-Hiti, 2003). Crystallization of the crude product from chloroform gave the title compound as colourless crystals. The structure of the title compound was elucidated by various spectroscopic and analytical data, which were consistent with those reported (Smith et al., 1995).
S2.2. Refinement
H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model with Uĩso(H) constrained to be 1.2 times Ueq for the atom it is bonded to.
S3. Results and discussion
The asymmetric unit comprises one molecule of C12H7N3O2S (Fig. 1). The phenylthiazolopyridine ring system is flat with a maximum deviation of 0.072 (1)Å from the least squares plane. The nitro group is twisted from this plane by only 7.6 (2)°. In the crystal, extensive π - π overlap occurs between pairs of inversion related molecules with a phenyl to thiazolopyridine centroid distance of 3.47 (2)Å (Fig. 2).

| 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. |
