2,4-Dimethyl-N-(4-methyl-phen-yl)benzene-sulfonamide
Abstract:
The asymmetric unit of the crystal of the title compound, C(15)H(17)NO(2)S, contains two independent mol-ecules, which are twisted at the S-N bonds with C-SO(2)-NH-C torsion angles of 48.3 (2) (mol-ecule 1) and -75.7 (3)° (mol-ecule 2). The dihedral angles between the benzene rings are 72.0 (1) (mol-ecule 1) and 78.3 (1)° (mol-ecule 2). The crystal structure features inversion dimers linked by pairs of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
