4-Bromophenyl 4-toluenesulfonate: supramolecular aggregation through weak C-HO and C-H interactions

V. Manivannan, N. Vembu, M. Nallu, K. Sivakumar and F. R. Fronczek

Abstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound, C₁₃H₁₁BrO₃S, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the 4-tolyl and 4-bromophenyl rings is 67.3 (2)°. There are weak C-HO hydrogen bonds which generate rings of graph-set motifs S(5), S(6), R₁²(4), R₂¹(6) and R₂²(8). The supramolecular aggregation is completed by the presence of C-H interactions. An R₂²(7) motif formed by the combination of a C-HO and a C-H interaction is a notable feature in the title compound.
