Description
Summary:The X-ray crystal structure of the title phthalazin-1-one derivative, C17H16N2O3S {systematic name: 2-[(2,4,6-tri­methyl­benzene)­sulfon­yl]-1,2-di­hydro­phthalazin-1-one}, features a tetra­hedral sulfoxide-S atom, connected to phthalazin-1-one and mesityl residues. The dihedral angle [83.26 (4)°] between the organic substituents is consistent with the mol­ecule having the shape of the letter V. In the crystal, phthalazinone-C6-C—H...O(sulfoxide) and π(phthalazinone-N2C4)–π(phthalazinone-C6) stacking [inter-centroid distance = 3.5474 (9) Å] contacts lead to a linear supra­molecular tape along the a-axis direction; tapes assemble without directional inter­actions between them. The analysis of the calculated Hirshfeld surfaces confirm the importance of the C—H...O and π-stacking inter­actions but, also H...H and C—H...C contacts. The calculation of the inter­action energies indicate the importance of dispersion terms with the greatest energies calculated for the C—H...O and π-stacking inter­actions.
