In the title compound, C14H13ClN2O5S2, the dihedral angles between the central benzene ring and the pendant chlorobenzene ring and the N-acetyl group are 82.35 (5) and 79.71 (6)°, respectively, and the overall conformation of the molecule approximates to a U shape. Both the C—S—N—C conformations are gauche, but with opposite senses [torsion angles = −59.29 (15) and 63.68 (16)°]. An intramolecular C—H⋯O interaction generates an S(6) ring. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate R22(20) loops. A second N—H⋯O hydrogen bond links the dimers into (101) layers.

Sodium sulfacetamide (0.236 g, 1.0 mmol) was dissolved in 30 ml distllled water in a 100-ml round bottom flask and the pH was adjusted to 8.0 using Na2CO3 solution (3%). 4-Chlorobenzenesulfonyl chloride (0.422 g, 2.0 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred at 50 °C for about 5 h. The pH was adjusted to 3.0 using HCl (3 N) and the resulting white precipitate was filtered, washed and dried. Colourless blocks of (I) were recrystallized from methanol solution at room temperature. This compound has been deposited to CSD with CCDC No. 859957.
The N-bound H atoms were located in a difference map and their positions and Uiso values were freely refined. The C-bound hydrogen atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H = 0.93–0.96 Å) and refined as riding atoms with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(methyl C).

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. |

As part of our ongoing structural studies of sulfonamides (Ashfaq et al., 2009, 2010), the synthesis and structure of the title compound, (I), (Fig. 1), are now described.
The dihedral angle between the central (C7—C12) benzene ring and the pendant (C1—C6) chlorobenzene ring is 82.35 (50)°. The dihedral angle between the central ring and the C13/C14/N2/O5 amide fragment is 79.71 (60)°, and overall, the molecule adpots an approximate U shape. The conformation of the C1—S1—N1—C7 fragment is gauche [-59.29 (15)°], and the torsion angle for C10—S2—N2—C13 of 63.68 (16)° indicates the same thing, but in an opposite sense. The bond-angle sums for N1 and N2 are 351.4 and 360.0°, respectively. An intramolecular C—H···O interaction (Table 1) generates an S(6) ring.
In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of N—H···O hydrogen bonds generate R22(20) loops (Fig. 2). The other N—H···O hydrogen bonds links the dimers into (101) layers. Centrosymmetric R22(20) loops were also observed in the crystal structures of the related compounds N-acetyl-4-(benzenesulfonamido)-benzenesulfonamide (Ashfaq et al., 2009) and N-[4-(p-toluenesulfonamido)phenylsulfonyl]acetamide (Ashfaq et al., 2010).
