Crystal structure of 4-methyl-N-(4-methylbenzyl)benzenesulfonamide

Abstract

The title compound, C15H17NO2S, was synthesized via a substitution reaction between 4-methylbenzylamine and p-toluenesulfonyl chloride. In the crystal, N—H...O hydrogen bonds link the molecules, forming ribbons running along the b-axis direction. One of the aromatic rings hosts two intermolecular C—H...π interactions that link these hydrogen-bonded ribbons into a three-dimensional network.
