In the title compound, C15H18N2O4S2, the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 71.8 (2)°. The conformation of the central N—C—C—C—N fragment is gauchegauche [torsion angles = 72.5 (5) and 65.7 (5)°]. Both N atoms adopt pyramidal geometries. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, generating (001) sheets, and weak C—H⋯O inter­actions consolidate the packing.

Comment top

The title compound, (I), complements N-{4-[(benzenesulfonyl)amino]butyl}benzenesulfonamide, C16H20N2O4S2 (Linden & Bienz, 1999), (II), with a propyl chain in (I) replacing the butyl chain in (II).

In (I) (Fig. 1), the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 71.8 (2)°. The conformation of the central N—C—C—C—N chain linking the two S atoms can be described as gauche–gauche in terms of the N1—C7—C8—C9 and C7—C8—C9—N2 torsion angles of 72.5 (5) and 65.7 (5)°, respectively. Both N atoms in (I) are clearly in pyramidal coordination geometries, implying that the lone pairs on the N atoms are not conjugated with their adjacent benzene sulfonyl groups. A similar situation was observed in (II).

In the crystal of (I), the molecules are linked by N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1). Considered separately, the N1 bond leads to [010] C(8) chains and the N2 bond generates [100] C(4) chains. Both the acceptor O atoms are part of the same (atom S2) sulfonyl group: it is perhaps notable that these O atoms have significantly smaller Ueq values that the O atoms in the other (atom S1) sulfonyl group that do not accept a hydrogen bond. Overall, (001) sheets arise from the N—H···O hydrogen bonds in (I) and weak C—H···O links consolidate the packing.

The complete molecule of (II) is generated by inversion symmetry and therefore the conformation of the central alkyl chain is all-trans and the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is constrained to be zero by symmetry.

Experimental top

A mixture of 1,3-diaminoprpoane (0.0067 mol, 0.561 ml) and benzene sulfonyl chloride (0.0135 mol, 1.72 ml), was stirred in 15 ml of distilled water, while maintaining the pH of the reaction mixture at 9 using 3% sodium carbonate. The progress of the reaction was checked by TLC. On completion, the precipitate obtained was filtered, washed with water and finally dried. Colourless blocks of (I) were grown from methanol by slow evaporation.

Refinement top

The N-bound H atoms were located in difference maps and their positions were freely refined with the constraint Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N). The C-bound H atoms were placed at idealised positions and refined as riding with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

Special details top

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 > 2sigma(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.
