Hypothesis
The study aims to determine the crystal structure of N,N-bis(2-methylphenylsulfonyl)adipamide.
Conclusion
The crystal structure reveals that the molecule forms infinite chains through intermolecular hydrogen bonds.
Supporting Evidence
- The asymmetric unit comprises half of a molecule, generated via an inversion centre.
- The dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the SO2—NH—C(O)—C—C segment is 89.9°.
- N—H···O(S) hydrogen bonds link the molecules into infinite chains.
Takeaway
The researchers looked at a special molecule and found out how it connects with others to form long chains.
Methodology
The structure was determined using X-ray diffraction techniques.
