Abstract

The title compound, C15H14N2S, crystallizes with two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The central imidazo[2,1-b][1,3]benzo-thia-zole unit is planar (r.m.s. deviations of 0.010 and 0.008 Å for the two independent mol-ecules). The fused tetra-hydro-hexane ring adopts a half-chair conformation. The phenyl substituent is twisted by 16.96 (13) and 22.89 (12)° relative to the central imidazo[2,1-b][1,3]benzo-thia-zole unit in the two mol-ecules. In the crystal, there are no significant intermolecular interactions present.
