The molecular and crystal structures of the title compound, C19H22N2O4S, were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction technique. The title compound crystallizes in space group F d d 2, with a = 30.785(3) Å, b = 10.6455(9) Å, c = 11.0036(8) Å, Z = 8, D calc = 1.379(2) g cm−3, μ(Mo-Kα) = 0.207 mm−1, and its crystal system is orthorhombic. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to a final R = 0.042 for 1530 reflections with I > 2σ (I). There is a half-independent molecule in the asymmetric unit. The title molecule has twofold rotational symmetry along with the C–S bond. Classically no hydrogen bond is found in the crystal structure. The crystal structure is stabilized by π–π stacking and edge to face (C–H…π-ring) interactions. To elucidate conformational features and steric hindrances of the title molecule, selected torsion angle is varied from −180° to +180° in every 10° and thus molecular energy profile is calculated by PM3 semi-empirical method.
