In the title compound, C15H8O2S, the coumarin moiety is approximately planar (r.m.s. deviation of the 11 non-H atoms = 0.025 Å) and is slightly inclined with respect to the plane of the thio-phen-3-yl ring, forming a dihedral angle of 11.75 (8)°. In the crystal, the three-dimensional architecture features a combination of coumarin-thio-phene C-H⋯π and π-π [inter-centroid distance = 3.6612 (12) Å] inter-actions.
Keywords: C—H⋯π interactions; asymmetric alkyne; coumarin; crystal structure; π–π interactions.
