1-(4-Bromo-phen-yl)-2-(phenyl-sulfon-yl)ethanone

Abstract

The overall conformation of the title mol-ecule, C(14)H(11)BrO(3)S, is L-shaped, as seen in the value of the dihedral angle formed between the terminal benzene rings of 75.44 (13)°. The presence of C-H⋯O inter-actions leads to the formation of linear supra-molecular chains along the a-axis direction in the crystal structure. These are connected into supra-molecular arrays in the ab plane via C-H⋯π contacts.
