Crystal structure ofN′-[(E)-(1S,3R)-(3-isopropyl-1-methyl-2-oxocyclopentyl)methylidene]-4-methylbenzenesulfonohydrazide

Abstract

The title compound, C17H24N2O3S, was synthesized in order to determine the relative configuration of the corresponding β-keto aldehyde. In the U-shaped mol­ecule, the five-membered ring approximates an envelope, with the methyl­ene C atom adjacent to the quaternary C atom being the flap, and the methyl and isopropyl substituents lying to the same side of the ring. The dihedral angles between the four nearly coplanar atoms of the five-membered ring and the flap and the aromatic ring are 35.74 (15) and 55.72 (9)°, respectively. The bond angles around the S atom are in the range from 103.26 (12) to 120.65 (14)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked via N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a chain along the a axis.
