In the title compound, C19H17NO5S, the phenyl ring forms a dihedral angle of 83.67 (4)° with the indole ring system. The mol­ecular structure is stabilized by weak intra­molecular C—H...O inter­actions and the crystal packing is stabilized by weak inter­molecular C—H...O and C—H...π inter­actions.

Comment top

Phenylsulfonyl-indole compounds inhibit the HIV-1 RT enzyme in vitro and HTLVIIIb viral spread in MT-4 human T-lymphoid cells (Williams et al., 1993). Indole-3-carboxylate derivatives exhibit significant antihepatitis B virus activities (Chai et al., 2006).

The geometric parameters in the title compound (Fig. 1) agree with the reported values of similar structures (Liu et al., 2007; Senthil Kumar et al., 2006). The phenyl ring forms dihedral angle of 83.67 (4)° with the indole ring system. The five- (N1/C7/C8/C9/C14) and six- (C9–C14) membered rings in the indane group are planar, with a dihedral angle of 1.90 (4)° between these rings.

The sum of the bond angles around N1 (359.95°) indicates that N1 is sp2-hybridized. The torsion angles O2—S1—N1—C14 and O1—S1—N1—C7 [-44.24 (14)° and 9.30 (15)°, respectively] indicate the syn conformation of the sulfonyl moiety.

The details of the hydrogen bonding are given in Table 1. The molecular structure is stabilized by weak intramolecular C—H···O interactions and the crystal packing (Fig. 2) is stabilized by weak intermolecular C—H···O interactions and C—H···π interactions involving the C1–C6 (centroid Cg1) and N1/C7–C14 (centroid Cg2) rings.

A similar compound with dibromomethyl group has been reported (Rinderspacher et al., 2007).

Experimental top

To a solution of ethyl 2-(2-methyl-1H-indole-3-yl)-2-oxoacetate (10 g, 43.2 mmol) in dry dichloromethane (80 ml) under nitrogen, triethylamine (7.8 ml, 56.2 mmol) followed by dimethyl amino pyridine (0.52 g, 4.2 mmol) were added slowly and stirred at 273 K for 30 min. To this benzenesulfonyl chloride (8.3 ml, 64.9 mmol), dry dichloromethane (10 ml) was slowly added at 273 K for 30 min. Then the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature and poured over crushed ice and extracted with dichloromethane (3 x 20 ml) and dried with sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under vacuum. Then the crude product was recrystallized from methanol. Single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were grown by slow evaporation of a methanol solution at room temperature.

Refinement top

H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using riding model with C—H = 0.93 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for aromatic C—H, C—H = 0.97 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for CH2 and C—H = 0.96 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for CH3.
