2-Chloro-N-(4-meth­oxy­benzo­yl)­benzene­sulfonamide

In the title compound, C(14)H(12)ClNO(4)S, the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 82.07 (1)° and the dihedral angle between the planes defined by the S—N—C=O fragment and the sulfonyl benzene ring is 82.46 (3)°. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are linked into C(4) chains running along [001] by strong N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. A C—H⋯O intera­ction reinforces the [001] chains: its graph-set symbol is C(7). The chains are cross-linked into (100) sheets by further C—H⋯O inter­actions as C(6) chains along [001]. The structure also features weak π–π stacking inter­actions [centroid–centroid distances = 3.577 (1) and 3.8016 (1) Å].
