Abstract: In the title compound, C₁₄H₁₂ClNO₃S·H₂O, the dihedral angle between the sulfonyl and benzoyl benzene rings is 84.4 (2)°. In the crystal, every water molecule forms four hydrogen bonds with three different molecules of 4-chloro-N-(3-methylbenzoyl)benzenesulfonamide. One of the water H atoms forms a bifurcated hydrogen bond with both the sulfonyl and the carbonyl O atoms of the same molecule. Molecules are linked into layers in the ab plane through N-HO and O-HO hydrogen bonds.
