In the title compound, C14H14ClNO2S, the angle between the sulfonyl and aniline benzene rings is 65.5 (1)°. The features inversion dimers linked by pairs of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The dimethylphenyl ring is disordered over two different orientations approximately related by a 180° rotation about the C—N bond, with occupancies of 0.643 (6) and 0.357 (6).

A solution of p-chlorobenzene (10 g) in chloroform (40 ml) was treated dropwise with chlorosulfonic acid (25 ml) at 273 K. 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-chlorobenzenesulfonylchloride was treated with 3,4-dimethylaniline in the stoichiometric ratio and boiled for 10 min. The reaction mixture was then cooled to room temperature and added to ice cold water (100 ml). The resultant solid 4-chloro-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). Prism like colourless single crystals used in X-ray diffraction studies were grown in ethanolic solution by slow evaporation at room temperature.
The H atom of the NH group was located in a difference map and refined with a distance restraint of N—H = 0.86 (1) Å. The other H atoms were positioned with idealized geometry using a riding model with C—H = 0.93–0.96 Å. All H atoms were refined with isotropic displacement parameters (set to 1.2 times of the Ueq of the parent atom).
The dimethylphenyl ring is disordered such that atom C13 moves between atoms C9 and C11. Atoms C13 and C14 were refined using a split model. The corresponding site-occupation factors were refined so that their sum was unity [0.643 (6) and 0.357 (6)]. The corresponding bond distances in the disordered groups were restrained to be equal. The Uij parameters of these atoms were restrained to an approximate isotropic behavoir. Attempts to introduce disorder of the atoms C9, C10 and C11 were unsuccessful.
As part of a study of substituent effects on the structures of N-(aryl)arylsulfonamides (Gowda et al., 2009, 2010), in the present work, the structure of 4-chloro-N-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)benzenesulfonamide, (I), has been determined (Fig. 1). The N1—C7 bond in the C—SO2—NH—C segment is gauche [C7—N1—S1—O2 = 64.1 (2)°] with respect to the S1═O1 bond and anti with respect to the S1═O2 bond [C7—N1—S1—O1 = -167.36 (18)°]. The molecule in (I) is bent at the S-atom with a C1—S1—N1—C7 torsion angle of -51.6 (2)°, compared to the value of -61.8 (2)° in 4-methyl-N-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)- benzenesulfonamide (II) (Gowda et al., 2009) and 57.8 (2)° in N-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)benzenesulfonamide (III) (Gowda et al., 2010)
The sulfonyl and the anilino benzene rings in (I) are tilted relative to each other by 65.5 (1)°, compared to the values of 47.8 (1)° in (II) and 65.4 (2)° (disordered sulfonyl ring A) and 57.8 (2)° (disordered sulfonyl ring B) in (III). The remaining bond parameters in (I) are similar to those observed in (II), (III) and other aryl
(Perlovich et al., 2006; Gelbrich et al., 2007).The crystal packing of molecules in (I) through pairs of N—H···O(S) hydrogen bonds (Table 1) is shown in Fig.2.

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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 a study of substituent effects on the structures of N-(aryl)arylsulfonamides (Gowda et al., 2009, 2010), in the present work, the structure of 4-chloro-N-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)benzenesulfonamide, (I), has been determined (Fig. 1). The N1—C7 bond in the C—SO2—NH—C segment is gauche [C7—N1—S1—O2 = 64.1 (2)°] with respect to the S1═O1 bond and anti with respect to the S1═O2 bond [C7—N1—S1—O1 = -167.36 (18)°]. The molecule in (I) is bent at the S-atom with a C1—S1—N1—C7 torsion angle of -51.6 (2)°, compared to the value of -61.8 (2)° in 4-methyl-N-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)- benzenesulfonamide (II) (Gowda et al., 2009) and 57.8 (2)° in N-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)benzenesulfonamide (III) (Gowda et al., 2010)
The sulfonyl and the anilino benzene rings in (I) are tilted relative to each other by 65.5 (1)°, compared to the values of 47.8 (1)° in (II) and 65.4 (2)° (disordered sulfonyl ring A) and 57.8 (2)° (disordered sulfonyl ring B) in (III). The remaining bond parameters in (I) are similar to those observed in (II), (III) and other aryl sulfonamides (Perlovich et al., 2006; Gelbrich et al., 2007).
The crystal packing of molecules in (I) through pairs of N—H···O(S) hydrogen bonds (Table 1) is shown in Fig.2.
