Abstract: We report here the crystal and electronic structure of a new spiro-derivative, namely methyl (2R,4S)-4-(benzothiazol-2-ylamino)-8,8´-dimethoxyspiro[chroman-2,2´-chromene]-3´-carboxylate (I), C28H24N2O6S, which crystallizes as racemate in the space group C2/c. In this compound, the chromanone moiety consists of a benzene ring fused with a six-membered heterocyclic ring which adopts a distorted half-chair conformation. The molecules are linked by a combination of N—H∙∙∙N hydrogen bonds and weak C—H∙∙∙O, C—H∙∙∙S, C—H∙∙∙p, inter- and intra-molecular interactions resulting in a two-dimensional network in the crystal structure.

Keywords: Carboxylates, crystal structure, spiro chroman-chromene, hydrogen bonding
