Abstract

In the title compound, C25H17N3O5S2, intra-molecular π-π inter-actions [centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.5640 (9) Å] are observed between the furan and benzene rings of the 4-cyano-phenyl group. In the crystal, mol-ecules are connected via C-H⋯O and C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to the (100) plane. These layers are inter-connected by C-H⋯π inter-actions and weak van der Waals inter-actions. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that H⋯H (30.2%), N⋯H/H⋯N (22.3%), C⋯H/H⋯C (17.9%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (15.4%) inter-actions make the most significant contributions to the crystal packing.

Keywords: C—H⋯π inter­actions; Hirshfeld surface analysis; crystal structure; hydrogen bonds; sulfonamides; π–π inter­actions.
