6-Meth-oxy-1,3-benzothia-zol-2-amine.

The title compound, C(8)H(8)N(2)OS, is almost planar, the C-C-O-C torsion angle associated with the meth-oxy group being 0.72†(1)°. Inter-molecular amine N-H⋯N hydrogen-bonding inter-actions form inversion dimers [graph set R(2) (2)(8)] which are extended into chains along the b axis through amine N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
