Hypothesis

The study investigates the effect of substituents on the structures of N-(aryl)arylsulfonamides.

Conclusion

The molecule is bent at the sulfur atom and exhibits specific torsion angles and tilting between the benzene rings.

Supporting Evidence

  • The molecule is bent at the sulfur atom with a specific torsion angle.
  • The two benzene rings are tilted relative to each other.
  • Molecules are linked by hydrogen bonding into chains.

Takeaway

This study looks at how different chemical groups affect the shape of a specific molecule, showing that the molecule bends in a certain way.

Methodology

X-ray diffraction was used to determine the crystal structure of the compound.
