The title indole derivative, C17H15NO3S, crystallizes with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. The benzene ring of the tosyl group is almost perpedicular to the indole ring in both molecules, with interplanar angles of 82.60 (5)° and 81.82 (6)°. The two molecules are, as a consequence, able to form an almost centrosymmetric non-bonded dimer, in which the molecules are linked by pairs of C-H
interactions. The crystal structure displays a three-dimensional network of C-H
O interactions. A
-
interaction occurs between inversion-related indole rings with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.6774 (16) Å and an interplanar angle of 1.53 (15)°. This interaction leads to a stacking of molecules along the a axis.
The title compound was synthesized by reaction of iodine (942 mg, 3.70 mmol) with N-(2-(2-hydroxybut-3-yn-2-yl)phenyl-4-methyl)benzenesulfonamide (584.9 mg,1.854 mmol) in the presence of methanol (20 ml) as a solvent. The resulting mixture was stirred for 6 h at 60°C. The reaction was then quenched by adding a saturated aq. solution of Na2S2O3 and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×20 mL). The combined organics were then washed with aq. NaHCO3 and brine, and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. After removal of solvent, the left over residue was purified by flash column chromatography, with silica gel using a mixture of hexane and ethyl acetate (20:1) to give 3-methyl-1-tosyl-1H-indole-2-carbaldehyde (329 mg, 86%). Single crystals were grown by slow evaporation from dichloromethane.
All H atoms attached to carbon were positioned geometrically, and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H bond lengths of 0.95 Å (CH) or 0.98 Å (CH3), and isotropic displacement parameters set to 1.2 (CH) or 1.5 times (CH3) the Ueq of the parent atom.

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

Indoles are heterocyclic compounds containing a pyrrole ring fused to a benzene ring at the a,b positions. Indole is an important biological heterocyclic system as it is present, for example, in the amino acid tryptophan. As a consequence, it is a biologically accepted pharmacophore. Derivatives possess a broad spectrum of biological activities (Sharma et al., 2010), for example indomethacin (a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) would fit in this class. The title compound is part of our continuing efforts to synthesize indole-based derivatives (Pathak et al., 2006; Pelly et al. 2005)
The title organic compound (Fig. 1) crystallizes in the space group P-1 with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. The aromatic moieties [indole (C1—C8 and N1) and tosyl group (C11—C17)] in each molecule are orientated with respect to each other at an angle of 82.60 (5)° and 81.82 (6)° in molecules A and B, respectively. The crystal structure contains C—H···O, C—H···π and π···π interactions. The π···π interaction occurs over a Cg1···Cg2 distance of 3.6774 (16) Å between two indole rings [Cg1 = N1A—C1A—C2A—C3A—C4A; Cg2 = N1B—C1B—C2B—C3B—C4B] with an interplanar angle of 1.53 (15) ° (Fig. 2). This leads to a stacking of molecules along the a axis. The structure contains several C—H···π interactions which are shown in Fig. 2. A layer of A and B molecules along the (001) plane is given in Fig. 3 showing the relative orientation of the A and B molecules in the layer. Geometrical details for the C—H···π and C—H···O interactions are given in Table 1.
