Crystal structure of N -allyl-4-methyl-benzene-sulfonamide

Abstract

The title compound, C10 H13 NO2 S, was synthesized by a nucleophilic substitution reaction between allyl amine and p-toluene-sulfonyl 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 inter-molecular N - H ... O hydrogen bonds between sulfonamide groups. These dimers are linked into ribbons along the c-axis direction through offset π-π inter-actions.
