Ethyl 2-[3-(4-nitrobenzoyl)thioureido]benzoate

In the title compound, C17H15N3O5S, the nitro and thioureido groups are twisted by 7.2 (7) and 21.4 (2)°, respectively, from the nitrobenzene ring plane whereas the thioureido and the ethyl ester group make dihedral angles of 43.0 (1) and 18.0 (2)°, respectively, with the benzene rings to which they are attached. Intramolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding interactions are observed. In the crystal, intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect the molecules into chains running along the a axis.
