In the title compound, C15H15NO4S, the dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 78.62 (16)°. In the crystal, adjacent molecules are linked along the c axis into C(4) chains through strong N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Molecules are further connected through C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a hexameric unit generating an R66(66) motif. Another C—H⋯O interaction connects the molecules along the c axis, forming C(5) chains. A region of disordered electron density, most probably disordered methanol–water solvent molecules, was treated with the SQUEEZE routine in PLATON [Spek (2009). Acta Cryst. D65, 148–155]. The formula mass and unit-cell characteristics do not take into account this disordered solvent.

The title compound was prepared by refluxing a mixture of 4-methoxybenzoic acid, 4-methylbenzenesulfonamide and phosphorous oxychloride (POCl3) for 2 h on a water bath. The resultant mixture was cooled and poured into ice cold water. The solid obtained was filtered and washed thoroughly with water and then dissolved in sodium bicarbonate solution. The compound was then re-precipitated by acidifying the filtered solution with dilute HCl. The compound obtained was filtered and then dried (M.p. = 393 K). Colourless prism-like crystals of the title compound were obtained by slow evaporation of an water/methanol solution (1:1) at room temperature.
The NH hydrogen atom was located in a difference Fourier map and refined with a distance restraint of N—H = 0.86 (2) Å. The C bound H atoms were positioned with idealized geometry and refined using a riding model: C—H = 0.93–0.96 Å with Ueq = 1.5Ueq(C-methyl) and = 1.2Ueq(C) for other H atoms. The C7 methyl H atoms were refined with AFIX 127, viz., an idealized disordered methyl group with two positions rotated from each other by 60 °. The crystal did not diffract significantly beyond 22 ° in θ. A region of disordered electron density, probably disordered methanol/water solvent molecules, was treated with the SQUEEZE routine in PLATON (Spek, 2009); more details are given in "_platon_squeeze_details".

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 a part of our continued efforts to study the crystal structures of N-(aroyl)-arylsulfonamides (Sreenivasa et al., 2013 and), we report herein on the crystal structure of the title compound.
In the title compound, Fig. 1, the dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 78.62 (16) °. This is similar to the value of 80.3 (1) ° in N-benzoylbenzenesulfonamide (Gowda et al., 2009), 79.4 (1) ° in N-benzoyl-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide (Suchetan et al., 2010a), and 81.0 (1) ° and 76.3 (1) ° in the two independent molecules of N-(4-Chloro-benzoyl)-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide (Suchetan et al., 2010b). Interestingly, in 4-methyl-N-(4-methylbenzoyl)benzenesulfonamide (Suchetan et al., 2010c) the angle is much larger, 89.0 (1) °, similar to the value of 89.8 (1) ° in 4-Methyl-N-(4-nitrobenzoyl)benzenesulfonamide (Suchetan et al., 2011), and 88.9 (1) ° in N-(3-Methoxybenzoyl)-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide (Sreenivasa et al., 2013).
In the crystal, adjacent molecules are linked along the c axis into C(4) chains via N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1 and Fig. 2). Molecules are also connected through C—H···O hydrogen bonds into a hexameric unit generating an R66(66) motif (Table 1 and Fig. 3). Further C—H···O hydrogen bonds connect the molecules along the c axis forming C(5) chains (Table 1 and Fig. 4).
