N-(2-Bromo-phen-yl)-4-methyl-N-(4-methyl-phen-ylsulfon-yl)benzene-sulfonamide

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 4-cyano-N-[(4-cyano-phen-yl)sulfon-yl]-N-[2-(5-methyl-furan-2-yl)phen-yl]benzene-sulfonamide

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.

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of N-[2-(5-methyl-furan-2-yl)phen-yl]-3-nitro-N-[(3-nitro-phen-yl)sulfon-yl]benzene-sulfonamide

In the title compound, C₂₃H₁₇N₃O₉S₂, C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link adjacent mol-ecules in a three-dimensional network, while π-π stacking inter-actions, with centroid-centroid distances of 3.8745 (9) Å, between the furan and an arene ring of one of the two (3-nitro-phen-yl)sulfonyl groups, result in chains parallel to the a axis. The Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that O⋯H/H⋯O (40.1%), H⋯H (27.5%) and C⋯H/H⋯C (12.4%) inter-actions are the most significant contributors to the crystal packing.

One-Pot Synthesis of Indole-3-acetic Acid Derivatives through the Cascade Tsuji-Trost Reaction and Heck Coupling

A practical palladium-mediated cascade Tsuji-Trost reaction/Heck coupling of N-Ts o-bromoanilines with 4-acetoxy-2-butenonic acid derivatives using a Pd(OAc)₂/P( o-tol)₃/DIPEA system is described for a straightforward synthesis of indole-3-acetic acid derivatives. This methodology was successfully applied to synthesize various substituted indole/azaindole-3-acetic acid derivatives and Almotriptan, which is a drug for the acute treatment of migraines. Moreover, a plausible cyclization mechanism has been proposed.
