(Received 6 November 2013; accepted 8 November 2013; online 16 November 2013)

In the title compound, C18H16ClNO2S, the indole ring system forms a dihedral angle of 75.07 (8)° with the phenyl ring. The mol­ecular structure is stabilized by a weak intra­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bond. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a chain along [10-1]. C—H⋯π inter­actions are also observed, leading to a three-dimensional network.

Comment top

The indole derivatives are known to exhibit anti-bacterial and anti-tumour activities (Okabe & Adachi, 1998; Schollmeyer et al., 1995). We herein report the crystal structure of the title compound (I), (Fig. 1). The geometric parameters of (I) are comparable with the reported similar structures (Chakkaravarthi et al., 2007, 2008). The phenyl ring forms a dihedral angle of 75.07 (8)° with the indole ring system. The five-membered (N1/C7/C12–C14) and six-membered (C7–C12) rings in the indole ring system are planar, with a dihedral angle of 0.38 (9)° between these rings. The bond angles around N1 (351.5°) indicate the sp2 hybridization of N1 atom. The molecular structure is stabilized by a weak intramolecular C—H···O (Table 1) hydrogen bond. The crystal structure exhibits weak intermolecular C—H···O (Fig. 2) and C—H···π (Table 1) interactions.

Experimental top

To a solution of 2-methyl-1-(phenylsulfonyl)-1H-indole (1 g, 3.69 mmol) in dry dichloromethane (20 ml), AlCl3 (1.47 g, 11.07 mmol) and propionic anhydride (0.71 ml, 5.53 mmol) were added at 0 °C and stirred for 3 h. Then, the reaction mixture was washed with saturated NaHCO3 (2 × 10 ml) solution, followed by water (3 × 10 ml) and dried (Na2SO4). Removal of the solvent followed a column chromatographic purification (Silica gel; hexane-ethyl acetate, 95:5) afforded the title compound, suitable for X-Ray diffraction quality crystals.

Refinement top

H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using riding model, with C—H = 0.93 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for CH, and C—H = 0.96 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for CH3.

Special details top

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
