N-Ethyl-N-phenyl-p-toluenesulfonamide

I. U. Khan, Z. Haider, M. N. Arshad and S. Ali

Abstract top

In the title compound, C15H17NO2S, the aromatic rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 32.8 (1)°. The ethyl group and phenyl ring on the N atom adopt a staggered conformation with respect to the O atoms.

Comment top

In recent literature the crystal structure of simple sulfonamide derivatives have been reported (Gowda et al., 2009) II and (Nirmala et al., 2009a,b) III & IV, which vary to the title compound (I) N-Ethyl-4-methyl-N-phenylbenzenesulfonamide in respect of ethylation at the nitrogen atom of I and substitution of methyl group at phenyl rings of III & IV. The dihedral angles between the both of the phenyl rings of all these four structures are not same as 32.79(0.10)° for I, 68.4 (1)° for II, 49.7 (1)° for III and 56.7 (3)° for IV, which may be due to substitution of alkyl groups at different position in all these molecules. The geometry around the sulphur atom S1 is distorted tertrahedral with the most distortion of 120.13(0.12)° for O1–S1–O2. No suitable hydrogen bonding have been found in the crystal structure of the molecule.

Experimental top

A mixture of 4-methyl-N-phenylbenzenesulfonamide (500 mg, 2.02 mmol), and sodium hydride (194 mg, 8.08 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (10 ml) was stirred at room temperature for half an hour followed by addition of ethyl iodide (630 mg 4.04 mmol). Stirring was continued further for a period of three hours and the contents were poured over crushed ice. Precipitated product filtered, washed and recrystallized with methanol under slow evaporation for diffraction studies.

Refinement top

All the C—H H-atoms were positioned gemetrically and refined using a riding model with dC–H = 0.93 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq for aromatic (C), with dC–H = 0.96 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq for methyl (C), and with dC–H = 0.97 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq for methylene (C). The two reflections 2 0 0 and 0 0 2 were omitted in final refinement

Special details top

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
