4-Methyl-N-(4-methyl­phenyl­sulfon­yl)-N-[4-(4-methyl­phen­yl)-1,3-thia­zol-2-yl]benzene­sulfonamide

There are two independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(24)H(22)N(2)O(4)S(3). In each, the sulfonamide N atoms reveal nearly a trigonal-planar geometry with two S atoms of the O=S=O groups and one C atom of the thia­zole ring; the angles around the N atoms are between 117.00 (13) and 123.86 (9)°. The methyl­phenyl­sulfonyl groups are in anti conformations, forming dihedral angles of 78.00 (7)/72.53 (5) and 77.09 (6)/71.50 (7)° with the trigonal S—N—S planes in the two mol­ecules. The thia­zole groups are rotated around the C—N bonds and are almost perpendicular to the S—N—S plane [dihedral angles of 78.00 (7)/72.53 (5) and 77.09 (6)/71.50 (7)°]. In the crystal, pairs of C—H⋯O inter­actions, with the O atoms of the sulfonamide groups as acceptors, link each of the independent mol­ecules into inversion dimers.
