Title: Crystal structure of N , N -diisopropyl-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide
The synthesis of the title compound, C 13 H 21 NO 2 S, is reported here along with its crystal structure. This compound crystallizes with two molecules in the asymmetric unit. The sulfonamide functional group of this structure features S=O bond lengths ranging from 1.433 (3) to 1.439 (3) Å, S—C bond lengths of 1.777 (3) and 1.773 (4) Å, and S—N bond lengths of 1.622 (3) and 1.624 (3) Å. When viewing the molecules down the S—N bond, the isopropyl groups are gauche to the aromatic ring. On each molecule, two methyl hydrogen atoms of one isopropyl group are engaged in intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds with a nearby sulfonamide oxygen atom. Intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds and C—H...π interactions link molecules of the title compound in the solid state.  more » « less

  1. The crystal structure of the title sulfonamide, C 10 H 15 NO 2 S, comprises two molecules in the asymmetric unit. The S=O bond lengths of the sulfonamide functional group range from 1.428 (2) to 1.441 (2) Å, with S—C bond lengths of 1.766 (3) Å (for both molecules in the asymmetric unit), and S—N bond lengths of 1.618 (2) and 1.622 (3) Å, respectively. When both molecules are viewed down the N—S bond, the propyl group is gauche to the toluene moiety. In the crystal structure, molecules of the title compound are arranged in an intricate three-dimensional network that is formed via intermolecular C—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonds. The crystal structure was refined from a crystal twinned by inversion.

  2. The title compound, C 10 H 13 NO 2 S, was synthesized by a nucleophilic substitution reaction between allyl amine and p -toluenesulfonyl chloride. The sulfonate S—O bond lengths are 1.4282 (17) and 1.4353 (17) Å, and the C—N—S—C torsion angle involving the sulfonamide moiety is −61.0 (2)°. In the crystal, centrosymmetric dimers of the title compound are present via intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds between sulfonamide groups. These dimers are linked into ribbons along the c -axis direction through offset π–π interactions.

  3. The molecular structure of the title compound, C 11 H 15 NO 2 S, features a sulfonamide group with S=O bond lengths of 1.4357 (16) and 1.4349 (16) Å, an S—N bond length of 1.625 (2) Å, and an S—C bond length of 1.770 (2) Å. When viewing the molecule down the S—N bond, both N—C bonds of the pyrrolidine ring are oriented gauche to the S—C bond with torsion angles of −65.6 (2)° and 76.2 (2)°. The crystal structure features both intra- and intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds, as well as intermolecular C—H...π and π–π interactions, leading to the formation of sheets parallel to the ac plane.

    The title compound, C 7 H 3 F 5 INS, a pentafluorosulfanyl (SF 5 ) containing arene, was synthesized from 4-(pentafluorosulfanyl)benzonitrile and lithium tetramethylpiperidide following a variation to the standard approach, which features simple and mild conditions that allow direct access to tri-substituted SF 5 intermediates that have not been demonstrated using previous methods. The molecule displays a planar geometry with the benzene ring in the same plane as its three substituents. It lies on a mirror plane perpendicular to [010] with the iodo, cyano, and the sulfur and axial fluorine atoms of the pentafluorosulfanyl substituent in the plane of the molecule. The equatorial F atoms have symmetry-related counterparts generated by the mirror plane. The pentafluorosulfanyl group exhibits a staggered fashion relative to the ring and the two hydrogen atoms ortho to the substituent. S—F bond lengths of the pentafluorosulfanyl group are unequal: the equatorial bond facing the iodo moiety has a longer distance [1.572 (3) Å] and wider angle compared to that facing the side of the molecules with two hydrogen atoms [1.561 (4) Å]. As expected, the axial S—F bond is the longest [1.582 (5) Å]. In the crystal, in-plane C—H...F and N...I interactions as well as out-of-plane F...C interactions are observed. According to the Hirshfeld analysis, the principal intermolecular contacts for the title compound are F...H (29.4%), F...I (15.8%), F...N (11.4%), F...F (6.0%), N...I (5.6%) and F...C (4.5%).

  5. In an attempt to grow 8-hydroxyquinoline–acetaminophen co-crystals from equimolar amounts of conformers in a chloroform–ethanol solvent mixture at room temperature, the title compound, C 9 H 7 NO, was obtained. The molecule is planar, with the hydroxy H atom forming an intramolecular O—H...N hydrogen bond. In the crystal, molecules form centrosymmetric dimers via two O—H...N hydrogen bonds. Thus, the hydroxy H atoms are involved in bifurcated O—H...N hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of a central planar four-membered N 2 H 2 ring. The dimers are bound by intermolecular π–π stacking [the shortest C...C distance is 3.2997 (17) Å] and C—H...π interactions into a three-dimensional framework. The crystal grown represents a new monoclinic polymorph in the space group P 2 1 / n . The molecular structure of the present monoclinic polymorph is very similar to that of the orthorhombic polymorph (space group Fdd 2) studied previously [Roychowdhury et al. (1978). Acta Cryst. B 34 , 1047–1048; Banerjee & Saha (1986). Acta Cryst. C 42 , 1408–1411]. The structures of the two polymorphs are distinguished by the different geometries of the hydrogen-bonded dimers, which in the crystal of the orthorhombic polymorph possess twofold axis symmetry, with the central N 2 H 2 ring adopting a butterfly conformation.
