Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld analysis of -ethyl-2-{3-methyl-2-[(2)-pent-2-en-1-yl]cyclo-pent-2-en-1-yl-idene}hydrazinecarbo-thio-amide.

The title compound (CHNS, common name: -jasmone 4-ethyl-thio-semicarbazone) was synthesized by the equimolar reaction of -jasmone and 4-ethyl-thio-semicarbazide in ethanol facilitated by acid catalysis. There is one crystallographically independent mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit, which shows disorder of the terminal ethyl group of the jasmone carbon chain [site-occupancy ratio = 0.911 (5):0.089 (5)]. The thio-semicarbazone entity [N-N-C(=S)-N] is approximately planar, with the maximum deviation of the mean plane through the N/N/C/S/N atoms being 0.0331 (8) Å, while the maximum deviation of the mean plane through the five-membered ring of the jasmone fragment amounts to -0.0337 (8) Å. The dihedral angle between the two planes is 4.98 (7)°. The mol-ecule is not planar due to this structural feature and the -hybridized atoms of the jasmone carbon chain. Additionally, one H⋯N intra-molecular inter-action is observed, with graph-set motif (5). In the crystal, the mol-ecules are connected through pairs of H⋯S inter-actions with (8) and (7) graph-set motifs into centrosymmetric dimers. The dimers are further connected by H⋯N inter-actions with graph-set motif (12), which are related by an inversion centre, forming a mono-periodic hydrogen-bonded ribbon parallel to the -axis. The crystal structure and the supra-molecular assembly of the title compound are compared with four known -jasmone thio-semicarbazone derivatives (two crystalline modifications of the non-substituted form, the 4-methyl and the 4-phenyl derivatives). A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the major contributions for the crystal cohesion are from H⋯H (70.7%), H⋯S/S⋯H (13.5%), H⋯C/C⋯H (8.8%), and H⋯N/N⋯H (6.6%) inter-faces (only the disordered atoms with the highest s.o.f. were considered for the evaluation).
