The title compound, C 14 H 12 OS, crystallizes with the two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. All bond lengths and angles in both molecules show normal values. No intermolecular hydrogen bonds or short contacts are found in the crystal structure.
The geometrical parameters for the title compound, C 16 H 13 NO 2 S, are normal. The non-centrosymmetric crystal packing, which is consistent with the non-zero second harmonic generation response, may be influenced by a weak intermolecular C-HÁ Á ÁO interaction.
The geometrical parameters for the title compound, C 16 H 13 ClOS, are normal. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 48.16 (5) . The non-centrosymmetric crystal packing is consistent with the substantial non-zero second harmonic generation response.
