Abstract:
The mol-ecular structure of the title compound, C11H15NO2S, features a sulfonamide group with S=O bond lengths of 1.4357 (16) and 1.4349 (16) Å, an S-N bond length of 1.625 (2) Å, and an S-C bond length of 1.770 (2) Å. When viewing the mol-ecule down the S-N bond, both N-C bonds of the pyrrolidine ring are oriented gauche to the S-C bond with torsion angles of -65.6 (2)° and 76.2 (2)°. The crystal structure features both intra- and inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, as well as inter-molecular C-H⋯π and π-π inter-actions, leading to the formation of sheets parallel to the ac plane.
