Abstract:
The synthesis of the title compound, C13H21NO2S, is reported here along with its crystal structure. This compound crystallizes with two mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The sulfonamide functional group of this structure features S=O bond lengths ranging from 1.433 (3) to 1.439 (3) Å, S-C bond lengths of 1.777 (3) and 1.773 (4) Å, and S-N bond lengths of 1.622 (3) and 1.624 (3) Å. When viewing the mol-ecules down the S-N bond, the isopropyl groups are gauche to the aromatic ring. On each mol-ecule, two methyl hydrogen atoms of one isopropyl group are engaged in intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds with a nearby sulfonamide oxygen atom. Inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C-H⋯π inter-actions link mol-ecules of the title compound in the solid state.

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...
