The title compound, C21H18O3S, is the E isomer, the ester ­oxy link being trans to one of the phenyl groups. The planes of the phenyl substituents at the vinyl C atoms form a dihedral angle of 66.32 (7)° with each other. The vinyl group shows noticeable non-planarity, the C(Ph)—C=C—C(Ph) torsion angle being 8.4 (3)°.

Comment top

The enol sulfonates have been extensively studied as substrates in solvolytic displacement reactions (Peterson & Indelicato, 1968) and as starting materials or intermediates in the synthesis of various medicines and agrichemicals (Yoshihiro & Atsushi, 1993). They also play important role in the synthesis of cephalosporin derivates (Ishikawa et al., 2001). As a part of our studies of enol sulfonates, we synthesized the title compound and determined its crystal structure.

The title compound is shown to be an E-isomer with the ester O1 oxygen in trans-position to the phenyl carbon atom C3. The C1=C2 double bond environment is notceably non-planar with the torsion angle C3—C2—C1—C9 being equal to 8.4 (3)°. The planes of Ph-groups C3—C8 and C9—C14 form dihedral angle of 66.32 (7)° with each other, whereas the C9—C14 plane is approximately parallel to the benzene plane C15—C20 of p-toluenesulfonic group; corresponding dihedral angle is equal to 10.5 (2)°.

Experimental top

1,2-Diphenylethanone (0.84 mg, 4.3 mmol) in 2 ml of THF was slowly added to 5.00 mmol of freshly prepared lithium diisopropylamide at 195 K and stirred for 1 h. The resulting pale yellow solution was transferred to a solution of 3.0 g (9.2 mmol) of toluenesulfonic anhydride in 20 ml of THF at 273 K via a double-tip needle. This mixture was warmed to room temperature over a 3 h period and then poured into 200 ml of cold saturated NaHCO3. Extraction into ether (250 ml) was followed by washing with brine (250 ml) and water (250 ml) and drying (MgSO4). Evaporation of the solvent left a yellow-brown oil (0.94 g, 80% yield). Recrystallization from 20% ether/pentane gave colourless crystals.

Refinement top

All H atoms were treated as riding atoms at distances of 0.93 (benzene), 0.96 (methyl) and 0.93 Å (methylene), with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq of the carrying atom.
