Crystal structure of (Z)-3-(4-meth-oxy-benzyl-idene)-2,3-di-hydro-benzo[b][1,4]thia-zepin-4(5H)-one.

In the title compound, C17H15NO2S, the two C atoms linking the S and carbonyl C atoms of the seven-membered thia-zepine ring are disordered over two sites, with occupancies of 0.511 (4) and 0.489 (4); both disorder components adopt distorted twist-boat conformations. In the crystal, N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link inverted-related mol-ecules into dimers, incorporating R 1 (2)(6) and R 2 (2)(8) ring motifs; the acceptor carbonyl O atom is bifurcated. These dimers are further linked by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming supra-molecular tapes running along the a axis.
