In the title compound, C21H17BrO2S, the two phenyl rings attached to the ethene group are oriented at dihedral angles of 76.19 (10) and 57.99 (8)° with respect to the Br—C=C—S plane [r.m.s. deviation 0.003 Å]. The sulfonyl-bound phenyl ring forms a dihedral angle of 83.26 (8)° with the above plane. The is stabilized by weak C—H⋯π interactions.

cis-Stilbene (4 g) was reacted with bromine (5 g) at 283 K to obtain dibromostilbene. The resultant compound was refluxed with paramethylphenyl sodium sulphonate (4.5 g) for 6 h. The reaction mixture was condensed to yield 5 mg of the title compound and was recrystallized from methanol.
H-atoms were positioned at calculated positions [C—H = 0.93 Å (aromatic) and 0.96 Å (methyl)] and refined as riding with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(Caromatic) and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(Cmethyl).
Sulfone compounds, similar to
show strong in vitro and in vivo antibacterial activity, and for almost 60 years they have been used successfully in medicine (Mandell & Sande, 1985). Certain also exhibit fungicidal activity.The separation of the Br and S1 atoms [3.371 (2) Å] is less than the sum of their respective van der Waals radii 3.65 Å. Shortening of this interatomic distance has often been observed in α,α-unsubstituted β-ketosulfones and is usually explained by hyperconjugative cross-interaction involving the π*(C2—Br)–σ(S1—C1) and π(C2—Br)–σ*(S1—C1) pairs of bonding and non-bonding molecular orbitals. According to general theory of the the largest overlapping of these orbitals should occur when the interacting polar bonds are situated in the gauche position. However, in the title compound, the S1—C1 and C2—Br bonds are almost planar [the S1—C1—C2—Br torsion angle is 0.9 (3)°]. The only existing gauche interactions involve S1O1 with the C1—C2 and C1—C9 bonds. In addition, the O1···C9 non-bonding distance [3.827 (2) Å] is much longer than the sum of the respective van der Waals radii (3.22 Å). Therefore, the main electronic interaction, despite the unfavoured planar arrangement, should be the Coulombic type, weak electronic interaction of the negatively charged bromine atom and the highly positive S atom, that is responsible for the electron-density transfer from the sulfonyl group towards the bromine atom. All the above features are similar to those reported for 4'-{[benzoyl(4-tolyl-hydrazono)methyl]sulfonyl}acetanilide (Wolf, 1999, and references thererin). The bond lengths are consistent with values reported by Allen et al. (1987), and indicate high level of electron-density delocalization which exists in the planar phenyl rings attached to the ethene group.

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. |

Sulfone compounds, similar to sulfonamides, show strong in vitro and in vivo antibacterial activity, and for almost 60 years they have been used successfully in medicine (Mandell & Sande, 1985). Certain sulfones also exhibit fungicidal activity.
The separation of the Br and S1 atoms [3.371 (2) Å] is less than the sum of their respective van der Waals radii 3.65 Å. Shortening of this interatomic distance has often been observed in α,α-unsubstituted β-ketosulfones and is usually explained by hyperconjugative cross-interaction involving the π*(C2—Br)–σ(S1—C1) and π(C2—Br)–σ*(S1—C1) pairs of bonding and non-bonding molecular orbitals. According to general theory of the anomeric effect, the largest overlapping of these orbitals should occur when the interacting polar bonds are situated in the gauche position. However, in the title compound, the S1—C1 and C2—Br bonds are almost planar [the S1—C1—C2—Br torsion angle is 0.9 (3)°]. The only existing gauche interactions involve S1O1 with the C1—C2 and C1—C9 bonds. In addition, the O1···C9 non-bonding distance [3.827 (2) Å] is much longer than the sum of the respective van der Waals radii (3.22 Å). Therefore, the main electronic interaction, despite the unfavoured planar arrangement, should be the Coulombic type, weak electronic interaction of the negatively charged bromine atom and the highly positive S atom, that is responsible for the electron-density transfer from the sulfonyl group towards the bromine atom. All the above features are similar to those reported for 4'-{[benzoyl(4-tolyl-hydrazono)methyl]sulfonyl}acetanilide (Wolf, 1999, and references thererin). The bond lengths are consistent with values reported by Allen et al. (1987), and indicate high level of electron-density delocalization which exists in the planar phenyl rings attached to the ethene group.
