In the title compound, C15H14N2O5S, the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 63.20 (11) Å. The displays classical intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonding typical for carboxylic acids, forming centrosymmetric dimers. These dimers are further connected by N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form an extended network.

To an aqueous solution (10.0 ml) of 4-amino benzoic acid (1.0 g; 7.3 mmoles) maintained at pH 9 with aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution, 4-(acetylamino)benzenesulfonyl chloride (2.21 g, 9.48 mmol) was added. Contents were stirred at room temperature until the complete consumption of the sulfonyl chloride (as indicated by TLC). The pH of the reaction mixture was changed to 1 using hydrochloric acid (1 M) and the precipitate obtained was filtered, washed with water and dried. The resulting solid was recrystallized from methanol to get suitable crystals.
All hydrogen atoms were identified in the difference map. Those bonded to O, C and N were fixed in ideal positions and treated as riding on their parent atoms. The following distances were used: methyl C—H 0.98Å; aromatic C—H 0.95Å; N—H 0.86 Å.
Sulfonamides are well known in literature for their potential as biologically active compounds (Hanson et al., 1999; Moree et al.,1991; Rough et al., 1998). These have been reported to display anti-hypertensive, anti-convulsant, herbicidal and anti-malarial activities (Esteve & Bidal, 2002; Soledade et al., 2006; Xiao & Timberlake, 2000; Lee & Lee, 2002). In addition the sulfonamide unit has been found in a number of compounds possessing anti-HIV (Selnam et al.,2001), anti-inflammatory (Ratish et al., 2009) and anti-microbial (Ozbek et al., 2007; Parari et al., 2008) activities.
In continuation of our work regarding the synthesis of various sulfur containing heterocycles (Arshad et al., 2008; Khan et al., 2009), the structure of 3-({[4-(acetylamino)phenyl]sulfonyl}amino)benzoic acid (I) has been determined. Bond lengths and bond angles of the title molecule (Fig 1) are similar to those in related compounds (Gowda et al., 2007a,b,c; Haider et al., 2009) and are within normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987). In the
each molecule is linked to an adjacent one through classical O5—H7···O4 intermolecular hydrogen bonds forming centrosymmetric dimers typical of Table 1. These dimers are further connected by N—H···O and C—H···O hydrogen bonds to form an extended network, Fig 2.For the synthesis of related compounds, see: Khan et al. (2009); Arshad et al. (2008).

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. |

Sulfonamides are well known in literature for their potential as biologically active compounds (Hanson et al., 1999; Moree et al.,1991; Rough et al., 1998). These have been reported to display anti-hypertensive, anti-convulsant, herbicidal and anti-malarial activities (Esteve & Bidal, 2002; Soledade et al., 2006; Xiao & Timberlake, 2000; Lee & Lee, 2002). In addition the sulfonamide unit has been found in a number of compounds possessing anti-HIV (Selnam et al.,2001), anti-inflammatory (Ratish et al., 2009) and anti-microbial (Ozbek et al., 2007; Parari et al., 2008) activities.
In continuation of our work regarding the synthesis of various sulfur containing heterocycles (Arshad et al., 2008; Khan et al., 2009), the structure of 3-({[4-(acetylamino)phenyl]sulfonyl}amino)benzoic acid (I) has been determined. Bond lengths and bond angles of the title molecule (Fig 1) are similar to those in related compounds (Gowda et al., 2007a,b,c; Haider et al., 2009) and are within normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987). In the crystal structure, each molecule is linked to an adjacent one through classical O5—H7···O4 intermolecular hydrogen bonds forming centrosymmetric dimers typical of carboxylic acids, Table 1. These dimers are further connected by N—H···O and C—H···O hydrogen bonds to form an extended network, Fig 2.
