Unexpected formation of a co-crystal containing the chalcone (E)-1-(5-chlorothiophen-2-yl)-3-(3-methylthiophen-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one and the keto–enol tautomer (Z)-1-(5-chlorothiophen-2-yl)-3-(3-methylthiophen-2-yl)prop-1-en-1-ol

The title crystal structure is assembled from the superposition of two mol­ecular structures, (E)-1-(5-chloro­thio­phen-2-yl)-3-(3-methyl­thio­phen-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one, C12H9ClOS2 (93%), and (Z)-1-(5-chloro­thio­phen-2-yl)-3-(3-methyl­thio­phen-2-yl)prop-1-en-1-ol, C12H11ClOS2 (7%), 0.93C12H9ClOS2·0.07C12H11ClOS2. Both were obtained from the reaction of 3-methyl­thio­phene-2-carbaldehyde and 1-(5-chloro­thio­phen-2-yl)ethanone. In the extended structure of the major chalcone component, mol­ecules are linked by a combination of C—H⋯O/S, Cl⋯Cl, Cl⋯π and π–π inter­actions, leading to a compact three-dimensional supra­molecular assembly.
