Abstract
Cis-mesityl(phenylsulphonyl)sulphine, C16H16O3S2, crystallizes in the tri-clinic system: space groupP¯1,a = 9.209(2),b = 11.106(2),c = 7.626(1) Å, α = 92.53(1), β = 98.53(3), γ = 89.82(2) °. The structure has been determined by Patterson and direct methods and refined by full-matrix least squares toR = 0.057 for 2724 observed reflections. The sulphine moiety has bond lengths 1.622(2) Å for C-S, 1.466(3) Å for S-O and a C-S-O angle of 115.2(2) °, indicating sp2 hybridization on the sulphur atom. All other bond distances and angles are close to normal values. The molecules are held together by van der Waals forces.
