In a 50 ml round-bottomed flask, benzene sulfonyl chloriode (6 mmol), water (15 ml), sodium bicarbonate (0.840 g, 10 mmol) and sodium sulfite (1.26 g, 10 mmol) were added and refluxed for about 4–7 h. The progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC until complete disappearance of the starting material indicated the formation of sodium sulfinate salt. 2-Bromo-3'-methoxyacetophenone (2 mmol) in ethanol (7 ml) was then added and the mixture refluxed for 7 h till completion of reaction (TLC analysis). After cooling, the reaction mixture was neutralized by adding dilute HCl. The precipitate obtained was filtered and recrystallized from ethanol to obtain crystals of 1-(2-methoxyphenyl)-3-(phenylsulfonyl)-1-ethanone (0.49 g, 84% yield) suitable for single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies.
H atoms on methyl, methylene and methine carbon atoms were positioned geometrically with C—H = 0.96 Å, 0.97 Å, and 0.93 Å, respectively, and constrained to ride on their parent atoms with Uiso(H)= 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H atoms.
Sulfone derivatives represent an important class of organic compounds and are known to have a wide range of biological activities including antiviral, antitubercular, anti-human rennin and antimicrobial activities (Dawood et al., 2010; Suryakiran et al., 2007; Siddiq et al., 2005; Lai et al., 2005). The title compound was obtained as part of our ongoing research to synthesize novel sulfone derivatives in order to study their different biological activities and structure-activity relationships.
In the title compound, C15H14O4S, the phenyl (C1–C6) and benzene (C9–C14) rings form a dihedral angle of 88.74 (10)°. The bond dimensions and angles are similar to those found in structurally related compounds (Yousuf et al., 2012; Billing et al., 2006; Pei et al., 2005; Gu et al., 2004). In the π···π stacking interactions [Cg1···Cg1i, 3.8651 (13) Å; Cg2···Cg2ii, 3.6092 (12) Å; Cg2···Cg2iii, 3.7240 (13) Å. Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of the C1–C6 and C9–C14 rings, respectively. Symmetry codes: (i) -x, 1-y, 1-z; (ii) -x, 2-y, -z; (iii) 1-x, 2-y, -z].
(Fig. 2), the molecules are linked to form a three-dimensional network by C7–H7A···O2, C7–H7B···O1, C11–H11A···O2 and C15–H15A···O3 hydrogen interactions (Table 1) and byFor the biological activity of sulfone compounds, see: Dawood et al.

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 derivatives represent an important class of organic compounds and are known to have a wide range of biological activities including antiviral, antitubercular, anti-human rennin and antimicrobial activities (Dawood et al., 2010; Suryakiran et al., 2007; Siddiq et al., 2005; Lai et al., 2005). The title compound was obtained as part of our ongoing research to synthesize novel sulfone derivatives in order to study their different biological activities and structure-activity relationships.
In the title compound, C15H14O4S, the phenyl (C1–C6) and benzene (C9–C14) rings form a dihedral angle of 88.74 (10)°. The bond dimensions and angles are similar to those found in structurally related compounds (Yousuf et al., 2012; Billing et al., 2006; Pei et al., 2005; Gu et al., 2004). In the crystal structure (Fig. 2), the molecules are linked to form a three-dimensional network by C7–H7A···O2, C7–H7B···O1, C11–H11A···O2 and C15–H15A···O3 hydrogen interactions (Table 1) and by π···π stacking interactions [Cg1···Cg1i, 3.8651 (13) Å; Cg2···Cg2ii, 3.6092 (12) Å; Cg2···Cg2iii, 3.7240 (13) Å. Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of the C1–C6 and C9–C14 rings, respectively. Symmetry codes: (i) -x, 1-y, 1-z; (ii) -x, 2-y, -z; (iii) 1-x, 2-y, -z].
