Abstract

In the title compound, C29H25NO4S, the mol-ecular conformation is stable with intra-molecular C-H⋯O and C-H⋯N inter-actions being observed. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯O inter-actions, forming layers parallel to the (100) plane. In addition, π-π [centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.4961 (7) Å] and C-H⋯π inter-actions connect the mol-ecules within the layers. The layers are also bound to each other by van der Waals inter-actions. A Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (53.2%), C⋯H/H⋯C (28.9%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (13.8%) contacts.

Keywords: Hirshfeld surface analysis; crystal structure; hydrogen bond; van der Waals inter­actions.
