Abstract: The title compound, C₂₃H₂₃ClN₂O₂S, was synthesized by the nucleophilic substitution of 1-benzhydrylpiperazine with 4-chlorophenylsulfonyl chloride. The piperazine ring is in a chair conformation. The geometry around the S atom is that of a distorted tetrahedron. There is a large range of bond angles around the piperazine N atoms. The dihedral angle between the least-squares plane (p1) defined by the four coplanar C atoms of the piperazine ring and the benzene ring is 81.6 (1)°. The dihedral angles between p1 and the phenyl rings are 76.2 (1) and 72.9 (2)°. The two phenyl rings make a dihedral angle of 65.9 (1)°. Intramolecular C-HO hydrogen bonds are present.
