The article presents information on the structure of the organic compound S-Phenyl 4-cyanothiobenzoate or C14H9NOS. The molecules of this compound exhibit a chiral non-planar structure in which the 4-cyanophenyl and S-phenyl rings are tilted at dihedral angles of 1.81 (2) and 72.49 (1)° with respect to the central thiocarbonate unit. The compound crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric monoclinic space group P21 and participates in very weak intermolecular hydrogen bonds and its observed structure is in good agreement with those determined for other S-phenyl thiobenzoates.
