In the title compound, C14H19N3O2S, the N atom of the dimethylamino group and the S atom are displaced by 0.078 (2) and 0.084 (2) Å, respectively, from the naphthalene ring plane. The 2-aminoethyl group has a coiled conformation with an N—C—C—NH2 torsion angle of 53.6 (4)°. In the intermolecular N—H⋯N and weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link molecules into chains along [001].

Compound (I) was synthesized according to a literature procedure (Corradini et al., 1996). Single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction were obtained by slow evaporation of a dichloromethane solution of (I) at room temperature.
All carbon bound H atoms were placed in their idealized positions [C—H(methyl)=0.96 Å and C—H(aromatic) =0.93 Å] and included in the
in the riding-model approximation, with Uiso(methyl H)= 1.5Ueq(C) and Uiso(aromatic H) = 1.2Ueq(C). Hydrogen atoms bonded to nitrogen atoms were found in the difference Fourier maps and refined with the constraints of N—H = 0.869(Å) and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N).Data collection: SMART (Bruker, 2007); cell

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. |

The dansyl (5-(dimethylamino)naphthalene-1-sulfonyl) group has been widely used as a fluorophore in the design of fluorescent probes. Recently many fluorescent ligands bearing dansyl group have been reported (Corradini et al., 1996,1997; Christoforou et al., 2006). We are interested in preparing fluorescent ligands that are expected to bind to hydrophobic sites in proteins or membranes. With this mind, the title compound, (I), was prepared and we report the crystal stucture herein.
In the molecule (Fig. 1), atoms N1 and S1 are located approximately in the naphthalene ring plane with their deviations being 0.078 and 0.084 Å, respectively. The N2—C14—C15—N3 torsion angle of -53.6 (4)° indicates a coiled conformation for the aminoethyl group. In the crystal structure (Fig.2), intermolecular N—H···N and weak C-H···O hydrogen bonds link molecules into one-dimensional chains along [001].
