In the 15H17NO2S, the conformations of the N—C bond in the C—SO2—NH—C segment are trans and gauche, respectively, with respect to the S=O bonds. The molecule is bent at the S atom with a C—SO2—NH—C torsion angle of −61.8 (2)°. Furthermore, the conformation of the N—H bond and the 3-methyl group in the aniline benzene ring are nearly anti to each other. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 47.8 (1)°. In the crystal, N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into chains.

The solution of toluene (10 cc) in chloroform (40 cc) was treated dropwise with chlorosulfonic acid (25 cc) at 0 ° C. After the initial evolution of hydrogen chloride subsided, the reaction mixture was brought to room temperature and poured into crushed ice in a beaker. The chloroform layer was separated, washed with cold water and allowed to evaporate slowly. The residual 4-methylbenzenesulfonylchloride was treated with 3,4-dimethylaniline in the stoichiometric ratio and boiled for ten minutes. The reaction mixture was then cooled to room temperature and added to ice cold water (100 cc). The resultant 4-methyl-N-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)benzenesulfonamide was filtered under suction and washed thoroughly with cold water. It was then recrystallized to constant melting point from dilute ethanol. The purity of the compound was checked and characterized by recording its infrared and NMR spectra (Shetty & Gowda, 2005). The single crystals used in X-ray diffraction studies were grown in ethanolic solution by slow evaporation at room temperature.
The H atoms were positioned with idealized geometry using a riding model with C—H = 0.93–0.96 Å, N—H = 0.86 Å, and were refined with isotropic displacement parameters (set to 1.2 times of the Ueq of the parent atom). For methyl group Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq.

Experimental. Empirical absorption correction using spherical harmonics, implemented in SCALE3 ABSPACK scaling algorithm. |
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. |

As part of our study of substituent effects on the crystal structures of N-(aryl)-arylsulfonamides (Gowda et al., 2008a; b; 2009), in the present work, the structure of 4-methyl-N-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)benzenesulfonamide (N34DMP4MBSA) has been determined. The conformations of the N—C bond in the C—SO2—NH—C segment of the structure are "trans" and "gauche" with respect to the S=O bonds (Fig. 1). The molecule is bent at the S atom with the C—SO2—NH—C torsion angle of -61.8 (2). The conformation of the N—H bond and the meta-methyl group in the anilino benzene ring are nearly anti to each other. The two benzene rings in the title compound are tilted relative to each other by 47.8 (1)°. The other bond parameters in N34DMP4MBSA are similar to those observed in N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-benzenesulfonamide (Gowda et al., 2008a), N-(2,3-dimethylphenyl)- benzenesulfonamide (Gowda et al., 2009), N-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)- benzenesulfonamide (Gowda et al., 2008b)) and other aryl sulfonamides (Perlovich et al., 2006; Gelbrich et al., 2007). The N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) pack the molecules into infinite chains in the direction of a- axis (Fig. 2).
