Crystal structure of 1-[(4-methyl-phen-yl)sulfon-yl]-2-phenyl-azetidine.

Abstract

The crystal structure of 1-[(4-methyl-phen-yl)sulfon-yl]-2-phenyl-azetidine, C16H17NO2S, commonly referred to as 2-phenyl-N-tosyl-azetidine, is reported. There are three close con-tacts stabilizing the supra-molecular structure. Two of the close con-tacts are between one of the O atoms on the sulfonamide moiety and two neighboring C-H bonds from the tolyl ring. The third close con-tact is between the H-C bond of the azetidine and a C atom on the phenyl ring. Distances between the tolyl rings are greater than the standard distance of 5 Å for π-stacking.
