N-(3-Ethoxyphenyl)-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide
Abstract
In the title compound, C15H17NO3S, the two aromatic rings make a dihedral angle of 69.42 (9)° with each other and the bridging C—N—S—C torsion angle is 65.76 (16)°. Weak intramolecular C—H...O interactions may affect the molecular conformation. Two neighbouring molecules generate a hydrogen-bonded dimer about a center of inversion through a pair of intermolecular N—H...O interactions, forming an R22(8) ring motif. Furthermore, two intermolecular C—H...π interactions contribute to the stability of the crystal packing.
